SIVECO Group expands its Chinese operation

SIVECO Group expands its Chinese operation

SIVECO GroupÂ’s EAM (Enterprise Asset Management) solution COSWIN is available in 15 different languages and has proven a great success worldwide for 18 years. Today SIVECO Group is pleased to announce its rapid expansion in China, with a first customer going live.

Paris (PRWEB) September 26, 2004

Siveco China was founded in 2003, with the opening of the Shanghai office. Drawing on the extensive experience of its local consulting team, especially with large Chinese infrastructure projects, SIVECO has established a strong foundation for future growth, with the localization of COSWIN in Chinese language and the setup of a technical support centre.

“Siveco China is primarily targeting the fast growing infrastructure market, more particularly electricity distribution, water treatment, and gas networks companies, fields in which Siveco has a recognized expertise” explains Carlo Fichera, SIVECO GROUP’s CEO. “Siveco China supports Siveco Groups multinational clients to deploy COSWIN to their Chinese operations” he adds, “as well as other multinationals who do not wish - or are unable - to implement their often less flexible corporate systems in their local plants”.

Siveco ChinaÂ’s target customers typically require highly usable systems, with reasonable implementation cost and fast return on investment. The more complex EAM systems already available on the Chinese market are designed for very large corporations with massive IT budgets and a long implementation timeframe. On the other hand, lower-end or custom-built systems developed by local suppliers fail to meet the stringent requirements of modern industry and international management standards. Siveco China draws on the team's strong experience in China, a deep knowledge of maintenance systems implementation, and on the easy-to-implement job-oriented COSWIN solution, to address the very specific needs of this market.

Siveco China's first project, a major real estate development in Beijing, went live in June. The company and its maintenance subcontractors utilize COSWIN to manage all the technical activities, from job requests to planned maintenance. The project was delivered entirely by Siveco's local engineers, together with a local facility management partner, within a very short timeframe.
