Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) April 10, 2007 -- HTI
is expanding its core business of designing and installing integrated
systems for the residential marketplace to commercial and MDU markets
in the Greater Seattle area and the Pacific Northwest as a whole.
Condos and other multi-dwelling units (MDUs) are being built in ever
increasing numbers as more people come to embrace urban lifestyles as
an alterative to suburban living. In recognition of this growing trend,
HTI, the Northwest's leader in providing integrated systems, has
launched a new business unit to serve this important market segment.
Craig Carman, VP for Sales and Marketing for HTI
said today that Margo Allan, a highly regarded industry professional
with more than 20 years of experience with some of the nation's top
firms, will lead the new unit. "Because of Margo's solid record of
achievement in high tech, business entertainment, real estate, and
retail with Fortune 500 companies such as Starbucks, Nordstrom,
Wal-Mart, State Farm, and Toys R Us, we regard her as just the right
person to lead this strategic business initiative."
As the Director of Sales, MDU for HTI, Allan's experience in business
development, strategic sales, partner alliance formation, leadership,
and management make her particularly suited for the new position. Her
experience in the technology and image industries allow her to
translate conceptual design requirements into cutting edge, fully
integrated technological solutions for new high tech buildings that
require high-end integrated systems.
"The market is ripe for the introduction of integrated technology in to
the high-rise condo market," said Allan. "This is the Year of the
Condo. There is a huge, new emphasis on building high rise communities
in Seattle, Bellevue, Portland, as well as up and down the west coast.
The new HTI is going to a big part of that. There is a real need in
this area for a technology partner that understands the home
environment as well as the developer's business model."
HTI is also taking a leadership role in the new Green initiatives that
are an important part of planning for developments in Seattle and other
cities in the region. Environmental concerns are having an increasingly
more material influence on developments across the nation. This reality
is no more evident than in the high rise condo living space here in the
Pacific Northwest.
"To this end, we're working with shading and lighting systems that are
energy efficient, so that the overall use of energy in a building is
reduced," said Allan. The programming HTI
offers is energy efficient and environmentally aware. Shades rise or
lower as determined by a well designed computer program, customized to
a given location. Air conditioning is also automated for energy
conservation. HTI provides a full integrated system that links shading,
heating, lighting for maximum efficiency.
