Selecting a reliable IT partner in Thailand can be challenging for expat executives. Cultural nuances, contract language, and service delivery expectations often differ from Western standards. At RAS EDGE TECHNOLOGIES, we’ve worked with numerous international organizations to help them navigate these challenges and build long-term, transparent partnerships.
---1. Is the Contract Available in English ?
Always ensure the agreement is written or available in both Thai and English. A bilingual contract eliminates ambiguity around SLA, warranty terms, and liability. Ask if the vendor can provide English documentation for quotations, invoices, and reports.
- 🗂 English–Thai dual language contract
- 📄 Transparent quotation and itemized pricing
- 💬 Clear definition of project scope and exclusions
2. What Is Their Warranty and SLA Policy ?
Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are the backbone of accountability. Your IT partner should define response times, replacement procedures, and warranty duration for all installed hardware and software.
- ⚙️ Hardware warranty comparison (1–3 years)
- 🧰 Onsite vs remote response times
- 🧾 Preventive maintenance schedules
- 📅 Clear escalation process
3. Can They Provide References from Expat Clients ?
Reputable IT partners should have case studies or references from foreign-managed companies in Thailand. Ask for success stories or projects similar to yours, such as factories, hotels, or international schools.
- 🏢 Previous expat or foreign-led clients
- 🌐 Experience with multinational environments
- 🧑💼 English-speaking engineers and account managers
4. How Transparent Is Their Quotation Process ?
Avoid vague pricing. Request a fully itemized quotation that distinguishes between hardware, labor, and optional maintenance packages. This helps your procurement team ensure accurate cost comparisons.
- 💵 Transparent, itemized proposal format
- 📈 Clear project timeline and delivery milestones
- 📊 Optional post-installation support cost
5. What Are the Installation and Handover Timelines ?
Timeliness is a critical factor, especially when aligning with corporate or facility launch schedules. Choose a partner who provides a detailed implementation plan, including equipment lead times, testing, and final acceptance stages.
- 🕒 Defined start-to-finish schedule
- 📦 Material delivery tracking and verification
- ✅ Acceptance report and training sessions
