Hello [firstname, fallback=customer]
Welcome to the April, 2020 edition of

Our Strategy for COVID-19
Dear Friend of Adept Turnkey,
Thank you for your ongoing support. We value our relationship
and we look forward to working with you further.
With regards to the current world health issue of COVID-19
we'd like you to know that Adept Turnkey aims to maintain
our usual high level of service. We will continue to employ
all of our staff and we will be working in different ways
to ensure that we keep not only our staff safe but our clients
too, while we work to continue business and to contribute
to the solution.
We would like firstly to acknowledge those of our suppliers
in countries that have been hit badly by this pandemic and
to extend our thoughts and best wishes to those personally
affected.
For those of you working with us in the coming months, this
is how we will endeavour to prevent and manage COVID-19 and
to continue business as normal.
" We have individuals working alone in our offices to
receive and ship goods. We have added strict hygiene procedures
including those to the receipt and dispatch of goods. All
other staff are well equipped and working from home.
" We have built role redundancy into our system in case
individuals become unwell and are unable to work for a period
of time.
" All of our suppliers are also taking strict measures
to protect their staff and to ensure continuity of supply.
To date production has continued as normal for all of our
manufacturers. There is a risk however that a production facility
may be shut for two weeks in the case of an illness. Some
manufacturers have mitigated this risk with two production
facilities.
" International couriers continue to operate but we have
seen some delays since most international passenger flights
that also carry cargo have been cancelled. We are also now
paying a small surcharge on international freight. Adept Turnkey
has absorbed this extra cost for all existing orders.
" All staff travel has been cancelled. All face to face
contact between staff, suppliers and customers will be done
with remote video streaming tools.
" One of the side effects of the pandemic is the disruption
to financial systems. The Aud$ has dropped significantly in
the past few weeks. To protect our prices to customers Adept
Turnkey has been forward purchasing foreign currencies. This
softened our cash reserves and so we asked customers if they
could, to pay a little earlier than they would normally. I
am happy to say we received a great response and things are
now back to normal. A big thank you to those customers who
helped.
" We plan to continue our monthly newsletter as there
is always something new and interesting to talk about in the
world of machine vision.
As the COVID-19 situation evolves, Adept Turnkey will continue
to monitor updates from Australian and New Zealand health
authorities and respond by ensuring our team operates in a
safe and responsible way.
We will keep you updated if any of this plan changes.
Take care. We hope that you - our clients, suppliers, partners,
consultants, friends and your families - remain safe and well.
Please feel free to contact me directly:

Wishing you all, staff and families the very best.
