Power Orbits Consultancy & Business

Delivering reliable, cost‑efficient solar projects starts with the right supply chain and the right engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) partners. Power Orbits builds and vets supplier ecosystems and develops fit‑for‑purpose EPC partnerships so your projects run on time, on budget, and to international quality and safety standards.

Service Overview

We design and implement Supplier & EPC Development programs that reduce risk, lower total lifecycle cost, and accelerate project delivery. Our approach combines technical due diligence, commercial negotiation, quality assurance, and capacity building to create a resilient procurement and execution network tailored to solar PV, storage, and balance‑of‑system scopes.

What We Do

Supplier Mapping and Market Intelligence: Identify qualified global and regional suppliers for modules, inverters, trackers, BOS components, cables, civil works, and O&M services. We profile capabilities, lead times, risk factors, and pricing benchmarks.
Technical Qualification and Testing Protocols: Define and run technical qualification processes: document reviews, factory audits, sample testing plans, FAT/SAT checklists, and site acceptance criteria.
EPC Partner Identification and Structuring: Select EPC partners matched to project scale and complexity; structure contractual models (EPC lump‑sum, EPCM, turnkey) and risk allocation aligned to investor and owner priorities.
Commercial Negotiation and Contracting Support:Lead or support supplier and EPC negotiations to secure competitive pricing, performance guarantees, warranty terms, and liquidated damages/bonus mechanisms.
Supply Chain Risk Management: Implement risk scoring, alternative sourcing plans, lead‑time monitoring, and inventory strategies to mitigate single‑source and logistics risks.
Local Content and Compliance Enablement: Advise on local content integration, vendor development programs, and regulatory compliance to maximize project approvals and social value.
Capacity Building and Performance Management: Deliver training, operational handovers, KPIs, and governance frameworks so suppliers and EPCs meet project delivery and O&M standards.
