One of the exhibition highlights was the added confidence placed on Perkins-powered gensets for both prime and standby applications by customers. This is because of the visibility and recognition given to authorized Perkins Distributor OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) through 'Certificate of Authenticity' that gives assurance to end-users in the genuineness of the Perkins engines they are buying. This also gives the OEM an assurance of product support to their end-users wherever their Perkins engines are operating.

This unique opportunity has encouraged many new genset assemblers to approach Power Systems Gulf to join hands for engine business cooperation. Power Systems Gulf engine sales package offers applications support, training, Extended Service Contracts, OEM Dealer agreements and more importantly, stability in the long term, to do business with a trusted Perkins partner upholding its values of honesty and integrity.

Another noticeable point during the exhibition was the absence of serious complaints on product support issues from territories. This is a testimony to the fact that the new regional business model implemented is improving the support levels for Perkins products in the region.

Middle East Electricity 2013 was the biggest event in its 38-year history with over 18,000 visitors reviewing the latest products and services and 1,100 exhibitors from 60 countries.
