INDIANAPOLIS — Carrier and Sibi, a technology platform for supply chains, are collaborating on a new supply-chain management system.
As part of the agreement, Sibi’s flagship integration products will connect home builders directly with Carrier’s distribution partners. The platforms will allow those partners to place orders for Carrier products directly through Sibi’s interface, saving time and resulting in a more streamlined supply chain, according to a press release from Carrier. Additionally, Carrier now has access to networks in the single-family rental, multi-family rental, home warranty, and new construction sectors.
Furthermore, digital tools will be available to help enhance HVAC contractors’ operations, providing instant access to a wide array of Carrier products and more. This support is designed to empower one of the largest contractor networks in the world with advanced technology and award-winning heating and cooling solutions, the Carrier press release said.
“Together with Sibi, we are innovating to solve HVAC industry supply-chain challenges,” said David Meyers, vice president of sales at Carrier’s residential systems division. “Making our energy-efficient, sustainable solutions available to the single-family and multi-family rental segment while eliminating barriers to attainment is a move in the right direction for our partners, builders, and renters.”
“Our collaboration with Carrier will empower businesses by turning their data into actionable insights, pushing the boundaries of supply-chain management,” said Barrie Lindahl, CEO of Sibi. “Data alone remains inert; layered with context, it becomes applied information.”
By leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced technologies, the collaboration will help redefine operational efficiency and responsible resource management, Carrier’s press release said.
