Slightly OT, need some electrical help
I can't believe it's come to this. At work I'm getting really
busy, really quickly, and one R&D project alone I could devote the next six months to full time, unfortunately at the loss of my other projects. It was suggested by the project manager of that particular project that I see if I could find someone outside my company that would be willing to help me out with a bunch of the work. The bulk of the work that I need help with is wiring control panels, done off premise, which is not as value-added as my uppers would like it to be. I'm in the Seattle area and while I understand that all the skilled folks are working full time, so I'm kinda thinking someone retired, other folks looking for side work, or small shops. Most of the equipment relates to heater controls, thermocouple wiring, RS-232, smart motors, relays, 4-20mA, and other signal wiring. Most stuff is in 19" boxes. This person would be working directly for me, not the company, although someone else in the company on the project would be providing payment on a direct basis (no fancy contracts, mostly word of mouth.) I'd provide all the major parts, a lot of the smaller stuff, diagrams (some pencil on paper, some wire lists, some worse,) and high quality expectations. I'm easy to work for, providing that I don't need to hold anyone's hand, and am casual about everything but good quality work. If anyone is interested or knows of someone or a small shop that is capable of the work, I'm highly interested. I've never been in this sort of position before, so I'm at a loss about how to go about dealing with this, so any guidance someone would like to offer would be greatly appreciated. You can reply to me directly if you'd like. |
