Fushun Mining Group and other stories
Dear Reader,
Welcome to our June newsletter, the last one before the summer break!
June was a busy month for our entire team… Several of our large multisite projects entering a critical “pilot” phase with bluebee®. We also have people in all corners of China delivering more traditional CMMS or maintenance consulting projects. Our R&D investment has again been increased, with major improvements in our bluebee® solution for Android devices (now both for tablets and smartphones). We have been opening new branches in both Beijing (a project office, preparing a future push in the city’s FM market) and Hongkong (the bluebee® Technologies office, focused on business outside of China). At the same time, we are investing heavily in our internal support systems, with a new project management tool (which we will probably feature in an upcoming newsletter) and activities towards obtaining the ISO 9001 certification next year!
In this month’s newsletter, the Reliability article is a follow-up on the “2012-2013 Maintenance in China” survey report (email us if you haven’t seen it!), addressing some of the questions we have received on the difference between Chinese and foreign companies. The Customer Story features Fushun Mining Group and the maintenance preparation project we conducted for their “ATP” shale oil processing plant. The Partner article explains how we work with Document Management System supplier Deya Tech, to deliver joint CMMS-DMS for our clients. Tips & Tricks covers the utilization of bluebee® for plant commissioning support. Finally, our always exciting latest news.
The next issue of the newsletter will be much lighter “Summer Edition” for July-August, so that our editorial team (and busy readers) can enjoy well-deserved rest.
Cheers,
Bruno Lhopiteau
General Manager
