Why Use an Agent For Subsea Equipment?

Apr 4

We’re constantly innovating our subsea equipment for surveys or inspections, software, and systems for marine science, ocean research, offshore energy, maritime, defense, and aquaculture industries. To make things as easy as possible for our customers, we work with more than 30 agents around the world.

We sat down with Pierre Almeida, Channel Manager at SubC Imaging, who works directly with our skilled group agents, to discuss the benefits of these partnerships.

Why does SubC Imaging use agents?

The main reason is to best serve our current and future customers. While we always prefer to work directly with clients, it is sometimes better for them to work with an agent. Our number one goal is to make sure that customers get the information and help they need to identify the right solution for their project. Since our customers are all over the world, an agent can assist them in the language they’re most comfortable with. Agents can also conduct business in local time zones, which can be preferred in some scenarios.

How are SubC agents selected?

SubC chooses only to work with agents of the highest quality. Every agent we work with is a recognized professional in marine equipment, systems, and software applications. Each agent we sign is fully vetted, trained, and receives ongoing support.
