enable monitoring the performance of all the equipment in real time
from a single location.
"We are honored that our
previous projects in Xi'an have led to a possibility to contribute
also to the development of this fantastic new mixed-use complex.
Our solutions and expertise will help create a premium user
experience for visitors of Nanfeihong Plaza, at a city of such
historic significance," said William B. Johnson, Executive Vice
President, KONE Greater China.
