Schneider Electric is a worldwide leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation. Schneider has been a partner of Hill Electric since its inception—for 70 years and counting. Though Schneider is multinational and Hill is locally focused, the two companies make a strong team, as they both share common goals and values of caring for their employees and delivering excellent work.

Most recently, they met at the Schneider Electric warehouse to take a photo together in front of 2 of 6 pallets of switchgears they are holding for a prominent local client. Hill often purchases electric supplies from Schneider via one of their distributors: Border States, Graybar, or Capital Electrical Supply. The two companies have worked especially closely during the past few years to meet customers’ needs despite worldwide inventory challenges.

Hill works closely with Sam Quigney, a Key Account Manager for Schneider.

“It is always a pleasure working with Hill on projects because of the knowledge they have about our product. The awareness of our product capabilities allows us to work together to source solutions in a timely fashion by using readily available material. Together we are providing solutions for our customers using Hill’s inventory and the Schneider Electric distributors’ inventory. This versatility of supply and advanced product knowledge is why there is so much power in our partnership.”  Sam Quigney, Key Account Manager at Schneider Electric

Trey Thomas, President and COO of Hill Electric added his thoughts on the powerful partnership:

“Our strong relationship with Schneider has enabled us to provide quality products and also quick fixes for our customers over the last 70 years. The relationship with Sam and the sales team allows us to partner together to ensure that the orders are correct and delivered on time. The last few years have been challenging to say the least as far as inventory goes. Through our own inventory, our distributors, and working with Schnieder, we have been able to deliver by the original promise date.”
