South Africa-based proximity detection specialist Booyco Electronics is broadening its global reach through collaboration agreements with selected technology integrators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solutions from Booyco Electronics, a pioneering force in proximity detection systems (PDS) and collision avoidance, have been attracting increasing international interest, says CEO Anton Lourens. The company has been applying and improving its technology mainly in the mining sector for the past 15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith South Africa\u2019s mining industry in many respects leading the way in deploying collision avoidance systems, Booyco Electronics has developed world class solutions that can add value to global markets,\u201d says Lourens. \u201cHaving explored the best ways of servicing our international customers, we have chosen a number of strategic collaborations with technology integrators across the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company now has collaborations with several technology specialists worldwide including Insucam, Ramjack, RCT and Tecwise. These partners understand the safety and other benefits of Booyco Electronics\u2019 PDS solutions, and bring their insights into the local conditions in which this equipment can be applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe believe that these technology partners \u2013 who understand our products and solutions \u2013 create the optimal channel to customers in regions where Booyco Electronics does not have its own infrastructure,\u201d Lourens says. \u201cThese companies understand their customers\u2019 specific needs, and can apply our solutions in the most effective manner.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He highlights that collaborative partners are expected to have high levels of expertise in related fields, a solid technical capacity to support customers, and the necessary insight and experience to implement value-adding solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTheir role in applying our PDS solutions would include the full scoping of customer needs, close engagement to clarify options, training of customers\u2019 operators, installation of equipment and general project execution,\u201d said Lourens. \u201cThis gives the customer confidence that our solutions will be properly leveraged to satisfy requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe appreciate the fact that new technologies like ours are easier to introduce through an existing relationship \u2013 for instance, where a mine has already been working successfully with a trusted technology integrator,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOur approach is therefore to build on those links where confidence has already been built, based particularly on the delivery of innovative solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company\u2019s partners are therefore best placed to facilitate Booyco Electronics\u2019 access into markets not yet familiar with PDS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
