The company provides a full range of technical services including automation system and integration of IT solutions to industrial customers in the Sichuan region. Aoruo targets the same industrial segments as Siveco: large multisite manufacturers, mostly chemicals, as well as facilities and infrastructure projects.<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The two companies were first introduced to each other by a mutual contact in 2010. After initial discussions, Aoruo and Siveco signed the VAPP agreement and quickly started to work on a project with Sichuan Lutianhua, a leading producer of fertilizers. The project consisted in delivering Siveco\u2019s bluebee<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> mobile solution as an add-on \u201cusability layer\u201d to the company\u2019s existing \u201cEAM\u201d system.<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Based on this first experience of quick and successful cooperation, the VAPP agreement was recently upgraded to ensure exclusive partnership across the entire region.
