Procedure for Returning Product to Force Control Industries

Do I Need a Return Goods Authorization?

Sometimes it is necessary to return product to Force Control Industries for several reasons including returning an incorrect shipment, inspection, warranty inspection and repair, product for repair or rebuild, or assembly. A simple return procedure is in place but the following guidelines should be followed for the best results.

Procedure for returning product to Force Control Industries, Inc.

  1. First contact our inside sales/service personnel to get a Return Goods Authorization. Provide the product information (model and serial number is best) to return, the reason for the return (rebuild, return wrong product, warranty), and discuss any charges involved (a price can be provided for many rebuilds).This is important for tracking purposes protecting both you as a customer and ourselves. We never want to get in a situation where you say it was returned, and we say we never received it.
  2. Once the return is authorized an RGA will be emailed with an RGA number.
  3. Package the product to be returned in industry standard packing.
  4. Attach the RGA number to the package to be returned. This number is used to track the product through receiving, and into the job pocket connecting all of the information. In this way the product can be handled as efficiency as possible.
  5. When received by Force control Industries, Inc. the process will be initiated to provide whatever service is required.
