UTRECHT, 13th June 2008 - Siemens Building Technologies from The Hague and Strukton Worksphere with its head office in Maarssen will become partners in the fields of security and climate technology.
Within this scope, Strukton Worksphere will be engaged in its capacity as a Solution Partner. This involves providing comprehensive solutions in the area of Fire Safety & Security (fire and burglary detection, CCTV and access control) and Climate Technology (measurement & control technology and building management systems) using Siemens' products and tools. For customers, this will bring competitively priced customised solutions, provided by an independent, nationally operational and highly competent partner. Cooperation between Siemens and Strukton Worksphere has already led to a number of high-profile projects, including the entire fire alarm system for the Maxima Medical Centre in Veldhoven.
In a changing market where the independence and expertise of installers is steadily on the rise, Siemens offers a partner programme geared towards jointly serving the market with a select group of companies. After completion of a training programme, these partners then form an important link between Siemens and end users and/or owners. Based in part on previously favourable experiences with partners at Climate Technology and Fire Safety & Security, Siemens Building Technologies has expanded its partner programme to include Strukton Worksphere for both sectors.
Marinus Schimmel, managing director of Strukton Worksphere: “Working on major projects, it’s crucial that we supplement our own expertise with the quality and continuity of a supplier of products and (part) solutions.” Tom Smole, managing director of Siemens Building Technologies adds: “We seek cooperative alliances that tie in with the needs of our customers and end users, in order to offer a comprehensive and increasingly integrated solution. Integration that goes beyond technology alone, encompassing engineering, project realisation and aftercare as well.”
The complete Siemens partner programme covers:
- Solution Partners for comprehensive solutions;
- Approved Distribution Partners for sales and distribution activities;
- Advanced Service Partners for specific installation and service-related activities.
