Clear after-sales services terms
Before purchasing, it is necessary to clarify the warranty period, maintenance response time, spare parts supply and other after-sales terms. After-sales through different channels vary widely, so it is necessary to choose according to needs and clarify relevant content in the contract.
Compare the comprehensive cost of procurement
