Once upon a time in the West
Dear Reader,
West is never west enough for our GM
I am pleased to write this editorial from our new Chengdu office! As our business in Western China has grown considerably, we have moved to a more convenient downtown location, which will provide a central base for our engineers working in Sichuan province. We currently have teams in 5 different customers locations in Sichuan and Chongqing, with all support team in Chengdu. I am glad we made the rather bold decision to move to Chengdu last year, an initiative that is already paying off!
In addition to the local team, our national teams are spending more time in the region for marketing activities. On March 28, we co-organized an event with our customer Chonqqing Sino French Water. On April 17, I was invited by the French Chamber of Commerce to share my experience of maintenance in China. On April 18, we held a small opening ceremony for our new office, with two of our local partners. All these events are part of our bluebee® roadshow, aimed at sharing more experience with customers and partners. I am myself spending more and more time in Chengdu and the Western provinces.
This newsletter is almost entirely dedicated to our West China business, but I think readers anywhere in China will find the content relevant to them as well. Our Reliability article is a reprint of a paper previously published in a business magazine on “Industrial Excellence in China – The Importance of Maintenance to Low-Cost Manufacturing”. This month’s Customer Story gives an overview of our customers in Western China. Our Partner article is dedicated to our joint service offering with Aoruo New Energy Technology. Tips & Tricks features bluebee® HSE Incident Reporting. With the usual Latest News, including the events mentioned above.
Welcome to the Wild Wild West!
