We were able to set upstairs and downstairs with an electrical motor for the family and the living room, a total of 4 big windows.
Budget analysis and selection of windows to be used motorized.
The employee supervisor that took our project was absent from work due to illness, no other employee in the current blinders areas wasn't tracking project status and deliverable time.
seeing the installers come to the house and matter of 30 minutes max was completed.
About how the measurement of the blinds had the wrong size. This created a bit delay as the store employee copy and paste all windows thinking was the same size. It end up returning the product and had a 2 weeks additional delay to the completion of the project.
In the future we need to track when deciding on new blinders motors will increment the cost of the blinds.
