Why MeyCom, or for that matter similar companies?

Very rarely is price the only determining factor when making a purchase, other than when one is purchasing a commodity such as rice or bandwidth. Even then, there are external influencing factors.

Considering that the generally accepted principle in determining the total cost of a building from its construction throughout its life-cycle, is that only 20% of the cost is attributed to the construction and 80% to the maintenance.

It is important to consider the capabilities and capacity of the selected contractor to be able to for fill both the initial installation and more importantly, to be able to service the systems.

The investment in fire and security technology in a building normally lies between 1%-5% of the total contract value.

The technology should last at least 10 years if correctly specified, installed and maintained.

Financial State

A factor which we have observed over the years, that is often overlooked is the financial state of the contracting company.

Over the 40 years that we have been involved in this industry we have seen many companies come and go.

The first warning signs that financial strain is being experienced is usually apparent. As with any business, when a company offers it's services at below market cost, trouble is looming on the horizon. A discreet credit check with a company's suppliers will soon reveal their financial status.

The directors of MeyCom have followed Bill Gates advice, that a company should be able to sustain it's self for at least 6 months without having to secure any further sales.

This is achieved through prudent management.

By reinvesting the profits made over the years back into the company, we have achieved this goal.

Conditional sight of our current unaudited financial statements is available.
