J2 Innovations, a Siemens company, has announced a partnership with Beijing Comfort Technologies (COMFORT), an industry leader in energy management and control systems for industrial buildings.

Beijing Comfort Technologies has officially selected J2 Innovations’ FIN Framework as the foundational platform for its intelligent energy management and control solutions. This strategic collaboration allows Beijing Comfort Technologies to leverage FIN Framework as both a foundation platform for advanced solutions and an embedded software tool, enabling the development of a next-generation edge controller.

Beijing Comfort Technologies has selected J2’s FIN Framework due to its open architecture, seamless integrability, and ability to complement its specific applications while creating new, tailored features for the target market. Beijing Comfort Technologies aims to advance its product offerings by aligning its development with the Chinese government’s carbon strategy and its vision of highly specialized software for the Chinese market, contributing to sustainable energy management practices.

Xiaohui Dai, J2 Innovations' APAC General Manager, highlighted the partnership's significance: “Thanks to the collaboration with J2 Innovations, COMFORT will accelerate its strategic enhancement and transformation from traditional automation to intelligent business.

By incorporating J2’s FIN Framework into its platform, COMFORT gains access to a scalable, robust, and efficient tool that drastically reduces its R&D investment while fostering innovation. The collaboration also aligns with COMFORT’s long-term strategy to launch a new series of edge controllers and a SaaS cloud platform geared toward intelligent energy management services.’’ 

COMFORT has established itself as a strategic partner of Siemens Industrial Automation, significantly influencing its best practices and innovative approach. Many COMFORT projects have successfully utilized Siemens solutions, such as WinCC and Desigo CC. Recently, they have explored the potential of J2 Innovations' FIN Framework through training in Siemens Desigo Optic, a building management system powered by the FIN Framework. From now on, the partnership with J2 Innovations will further enhance COMFORT's ability to provide next-generation solutions in energy management and control systems.

Building smarter solutions and empowering customers

This collaboration also benefits J2 Innovations by expanding its ecosystem partnerships in China and leveraging COMFORT’s domain expertise in industrial building automation. Matteo Pierone, Managing Director of J2 Innovations, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating: “J2 is delighted to have Beijing Comfort Technologies as our customer in China. They are a leader in energy management and control systems for industrial buildings and are enthusiastic to develop intelligent products and solutions locally. The cooperation between Beijing Comfort Technologies and J2 will benefit more customers and society by leveraging Beijing Comfort Technologies’ industry know-how and J2’s best-in-class FIN Framework.”

For end users, this partnership means a significant step forward in flexibility and stability for Building Automation System (BAS) solutions. By integrating IT and OT technologies within building automation, the FIN Framework enables effective on-site facility management while promoting long-term sustainability. Customers can expect intelligent, energy-saving solutions that meet modern needs while adhering to local policies and environmental best practices.
