Market Feedback
Technovator
was formed following industry feedback thru extensive discussion with
consultants, contractors, and end users in Asia market and in particularly the
major property developers and facilities management companies in Southeast Asia,
Northeast Asia and China.
The
overwhelming message from this survey is that there is a demand for a place or
one-stop building technology shop where suppliers and end users could avoid
going through the hassle of matching their products or systems to the needs of
the end users, or selling the value of the product or systems to the end users
who do not appreciate their value and will not pay for the value of the
features.
Most of
the time, the end users has claimed that they are paying for a system which
would not address their pains and needs or, overpaying for a system which could
do at a lower price to overcome the pains. Worst of all, the investment will
never return.
Industry Gap
A Gap
has been developed in the market over the last 5 years or so, which has been
created by mergers and acquisitions of many traditional suppliers and their
focus on product volumes and corporate benchmarking on
profiteering.
These
mergers and acquisitions have totally discarded the early good intention of the
traditional suppliers to maximize customer value with the lowest cost.
Open
standards systems advocators of giving the end user the freedom of choice and
full strategic flexibility is getting lesser and lesser.
Multi-vendors
philosophy to give the customer the benefit of vendors independence has started
to disappear slowly and every suppliers is trying at all means to put in
embedded “lock in” features either in software or hardware tools to stifle full
openness by “Advocating and yet not practicing”.
Nevertheless,
prices has gone up indirectly and worst of all, suppliers are selling expensive
technology features that could not translate into true tangible
benefits.
The market is eagerly waiting for a
true independent company without the normal conflict of interests that arise
from being tied to any particular product range or systems philosophy, to help
them to select innovative quality products with affordable price to meet their
expectation and create a shorter return to their
investment.
Why Technovator?
Technovator
was formed to address the Gap in the market. The vision is “ To be the best
place where customers and suppliers could get value for money, innovative and
quality products, and superior service in building technology by active
management of supply chain and sales channels”
Our
Mission is
“ To
provide the best value in terms of utility, quality, pricing and cost which the
“MASS” market could
afford
on building technology”
In
short, “As good but affordable”.
