On November 7, 2012, Mr. Qiu Zhiheng, General Manager of Nanjing Fire Equipment Co., Ltd. went to Shell Singapore with Mr. Wang Yong and Mr. Sun Nianbao from the Department of Foreign Trade and Economics to have in-depth talks and reach an agreement with Mr. Tony Collins, General Manager of Enterprise Products and Suppliers, Ms. Diane Green, Enterprise Product Manager, and Ms. Wu Na, Product Manager of HSSE Equipment of Shell. To show the importance of this cooperation, Shell organized a very formal and grand on-site signing ceremony. Both Mr. Qiu and Mr. Collins spoke highly of the strategic cooperation and had high hopes for the future cooperation.
The signing of the enterprise framework agreement with Shell and becoming a strategic partner of Shell is a great event in the history of the company's development, which is another new breakthrough after the company became a qualified supplier of GE and BASF. Through the strategic cooperation with the world's top 500 enterprises, learning from their advanced project management experience, product innovation together with them, and entering the company's products and services into their global markets, which fully reflects the decision-making of the company's leadership and the company's core competitiveness, will surely improve the company's overall strength and enhance the company's visibility in the domestic and even international fire protection industry.
After the signing ceremony, the two sides held a project cooperation kick-off meeting, and had a cordial and friendly discussion on the organizational structure of the personnel of both sides, project management process and other key issues in the next five-year cooperation period. Since then, SAC has officially become a qualified supplier of Shell, providing products and maintenance services for its subsidiaries and projects.
The cooperation with Shell is a new starting point for the company. As General Manager Qiu said, 'It is an opportunity and a challenge'.
In addition, with the opportunity of signing the corporate framework agreement with Shell, we also visited the headquarters of Siemens Asia Pacific and DET-TRONICIS Asia Pacific respectively, and had an in-depth communication on the deeper cooperation between NSC and the company, hoping to take this opportunity to establish a closer partnership between the two sides. This visit was highly valued by the other party, and they promised to keep close communication with Nanfangcai in the related cooperation field, and at the same time give us more support in business and technology.
