Bank of China (Macau) Limited joined hands yesterday with Artery Intelligent Community Technology Limited and Macao Newland Technology Company Limited to launch an e-platform for property management, in the hope of promoting and supporting the digital transformation of the local property management sector through cross-industry collaboration in the community, finance and technology.
According to a press conference at the Bank of China Building on Avenida Doutor Mário Soares, through the e-platform, property management companies can conveniently manage their property information, fee collection, equipment maintenance and back-office operations, while residents can enjoy services such as online payments, appointments and communication, as well as provide feedback and suggestions to their respective property management companies.
Macau is at the initial stage of smart community and property management, and there’s a lot of room for its development, Artery Intelligent Community Technology Limited Co-founder Lao Chi Long told reporters after the press conference, adding that the newly launched e-platform is already operational in Taipa’s Prince Flower City residential building with about 600 households, and the feedback from its dwellers was “quite positive”.
Lao shared his goals with the media after the press conference, hoping that the platform will cover about one-fifth of Macau’s residential buildings by 2025.
Bank of China (Macau) Chairman Li Ruiqiang said in a speech that the market demand and development potential of the intelligent property management system were “great” and, therefore, the bank would continue to strengthen cooperation with the platform’s two other companies to provide comprehensive financial service support for the expansion of the community coverage of the smart property management platform.
During yesterday’s press conference, Bank of China (Macau) inked its respective deals with the two companies, as well as the Macao Digital China Technology Alliance.
