On Oct 9th, a ceremony was held with top managers of MANE (Shanghai) Fragrances and Flavors Co., Ltd. to mark the official "Go Live" of bluebee®.

Technical staff at the MANE manufacturing and R&D site, located in Shanghai Baoshan district, are now using bluebee® mobile, running on standard Android mobile phones, to manage their inspections and maintenance work orders. In addition, bluebee® for WeChat has also been implemented, allowing anyone whose mobile phone is connected to the company network to report problems into the central database, with attached photos.

The company has been using Coswin 8i since September 2014 and was previously using the Windows Mobile version of bluebee®.

During the ceremony, Siveco's Operation Director Guillaume gave a welcome speech, emphasizing the use of the system at MANE both as a compliance management tool and as an improvement tool.
