Collaboration is the Key to Success
“Collaboration” is the current buzz word.
There are businesses globally that have discovered that their respective
products or services complement each other. They have discovered that there is
great value in working together. Businesses that
work together to create a better solution for their clients.
Collaboration, however, is not something new. Throughout history, there have been businesses, artists, entertainers, fashion designers, even
government departments that have successfully
worked together to create something great.
There are significant benefits to two or
more minds or two or more businesses coming together. Collaboration opens the
scope for greater opportunities to all
businesses involved in the collaboration. Rather than several businesses doing
their own thing, repeating the same steps of manufacturing,
marketing, and sales, collaboration can share the costs and the profits.
Collaboration is bouncing ideas off each
other, working out what each business needs, and together creating a product or
service that meets all requirements. Businesses working together can create
innovative and superior products or services.
What makes this work?
There are many great success stories of
businesses working together to create greatness;
there are just as many failures. So, what do businesses need to do to
make it work?
Understanding
All businesses within the collaboration
must have a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their
partnering businesses.
Communication
There must be open lines of communication
between each partner. Every partner must have a voice,
and their opinion or idea must be heard.
Trust & Confidentiality
The businesses must be able to trust each
other. They will be sharing highly sensitive information about their respective
businesses with each other. They will also be relying on each other to complete
the project.
Who has successfully achieved this?
There is an ongoing collaboration between
three outstanding companies, and together they have been able to provide a
significant service.
Aeris Environmental Ltd and the National
Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice Program have collaborated with
HydroKleen to provide a Total Solution Process (TSP). This process encompasses
air-conditioner testing, cleaning, and protection.
Aeris Environmentals’
globally certified technology is derived from hospital infection microbial
control and removes contamination from coils as well as providing guaranteed
protection from recontamination.
National
Asthma Council Australia (NACA) is a not-for-profit organisation working to
improve the health and quality of life of Australians suffering from asthma. The NACA publish Australia’s national
guideline for asthma management. HydroKleens’ Total Solution Process is the
only method of cleaning, sanitising, and disinfecting
of air conditioners approved through NACA’s Sensitive Choice Program.
HydroKleens’ TSP ensures air conditioning
systems perform at optimum efficiency, resulting in a longer lifespan, significantly reduced running and maintenance
costs, as well as ensuring dramatically improved air quality.
These three organisations working together
have been able to create an innovative product and service that not only offers:
·
A healthier indoor environment
- sick building causes are frequently pinned down to flaws in the heating,
ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
·
Less energy usage - for systems
whose heat transfer surfaces have not been inspected and cleaned in the last
three years an immediate energy saving of at least 10% is expected to be
achieved following cleaning
·
Reduced maintenance costs –
AC systems that are cleaned regularly
will have less occurrence of breakdowns or repairs.
·
Improved asset protection – the
expected lifespan of an HVAC system is on
average 14 years. Protecting this asset with regular maintenance will reduce
the need to replace the system, reduce landfill, and save the customer money.
Three-Pronged Attack
Aeris Environmentals
technology has been used to create a cleaning product that not only cleans HVAC
systems, but it also sanitises and
disinfects. This product, used with the HydroKleen trademarked cleaning system
will guarantee the removal of microbiological contaminants
such as bacteria, mould and fungi which are
commonly found in HVAC systems.
HydroKleen has spent extensive time
consulting with National Asthma Council Australia to make sure that their
service aligns with the Sensitive Choice Program. This alliance is extremely
important to HydroKleen as part of the Total Solution Process.
