What LifaSourcing.com did
Scanned China, Korea, and Europe markets; built a 12-dealer list with registration and trading-history checks.
Created a condition-assessment checklist (hour meter, undercarriage wear, hydraulics, service records) applied to 7 shortlisted units.
Negotiated warranty terms (minimum 6 months / 1,000 hours) and spare-parts kits with each dealer.
Delivered a price / condition / warranty comparison with a clear purchase recommendation.
3 dealers qualified; 2 excavators and 2 loaders acquired at 15% below budget (~$118,000 saved vs. plan); fleet downtime reduced to 9%; the two tender projects were delivered on schedule.
