Why is PreFab better than Field Built?

---

Could you imagine if you went to the auto parts store and asked for every single part for a brand new pickup truck? You would leave with 5000 pounds of parts totaling $300,000. Once you got them home and in your garage, you would start assembling them...for weeks, or months. Another $100,000 in labor. Once the vehicle was assembled, you'd add a battery and some gas and turn the key. What would you expect on that first try? Would it start? Would you drive it down the road? Trust the brakes? Would you know the efficiency (mpg)? 

All of this effort, with no performance guarantees for $400,000 and 6 months of your life. Or you could go to your local dealer and buy that truck for $50,000...guaranteed to run, guaranteed efficiency, with long-term warranties. It was built in hours, not months. We have no problem imagining the benefits.

Yet, the construction industry purchases heating/cooling central plants "the garage" method every day. It's the norm, not the exception, to buy all the components and assemble them in the field. Sometimes in the elements, but always in less safe conditions than the "factory". Therefore, you bear the extra costs of construction management and safety monitoring.

Heavy can help your team evaluate the "real difference". A plant purchased and built to the project's required specifications in weeks. Delivered and assembled in just days.

Furthermore, Heavy can provide guaranteed CapEx, guaranteed OpEx, or both.
