Terms and Conditions

1.  Sale of Goods

In addition to Ategra’s core business of providing high level IT services and outsourcing, Ategra will market, quote and sell where appropriate top quality goods to our clients. The mark-up Ategra adds to these goods is low and always strives to be very market competitive. The “Value Add” benefits that you will receive by purchasing goods from Ategra are…

bullet

Business familiarity, we have a good knowledge of your business requirements and what you really need. We will only sell you goods that will provide long term business benefits. We won’t be selling you something just to get a sale.

bullet

Easy and convenient, pass the ownership for provision to us, leaving you to do what you do best.

bullet

Single owner for delivery, we can investigate options, quote, order, and provide installation. Single point of contact for you to deal with. No additional project management or co-ordination required.

2.   Quotes

Where requested, Ategra will investigate your product requirements and provide you a quote for goods. This often involves a significant investment in our time and often requires us to research options and in some cases “design” solutions. Unless otherwise stated we will do this without charging you for this time. Our aim is to recover any time spent in providing these quotes by the small margin we make from selling them. If competitive pricing is required, then it is our expectation that you will inform us at the quote request time.

Ategra reserves the right to charge a reasonable amount of design time for preparing quotes, where Ategra has not been awarded the goods supply and a “solution” has been designed by the quote we have provided.

You will treat any quote information provided by Ategra as confidential, unless agreed to by Ategra.

For a variety of reasons, both quoted pricing and product availability may vary to our quote at time of our order, in this case Ategra will seek approval from you of any change prior to proceeding.

If required Ategra will provide you details of the standard mark-up we apply to our goods (provided the value of those goods is above $500). For competitive reasons this is not disclosed here.

All quotes will be GST exclusive unless otherwise stated.

All quotes will be exclusive of delivery and installation unless specifically stated.
