nora systems, Inc. has launched noraXchange, an interactive online community for building and design professionals to share ideas and learn about a variety of topics.
Updated monthly, it is designed to help facility managers, architects, designers, installers and other building professionals address challenges and answer questions they encounter in their work.
Each month members of the noraXchange will receive an email informing them about new topics available in the latest installment. Project briefs describing nora installations, industry news, a technical station that explores key installation and maintenance issues and a variety of other topics are just some of the potential subjects for members to explore.
