At the business end, Broad Homes remains committed to PC unit manufacturing and intelligent manufacturing research and development (R&D), and gradually shits focus away from construction contracting. Broad Homes developed PC Maker software and PC CPS to improve its production efficiency and cost control capacity. Meanwhile, Broad Homes was the first to realize the importance of data elements, and took the lead in the full process prefabricated construction intelligent-oriented development.
At the consumer end, taking advantage of the policy of "separation of ownership, contracting right and management right" in rural homesteads, Broad Homes is expected to get involved in the trillion-level rural housing construction market. In 2020, Broad Homes focused on developing TOC business and launched B-house and the new product B-BOX. B-house products mainly target C-end consumers and the rural villa market, under which Broad Homes introduced seven standardized products, such as Buttonwood Villa, Oak Manor and Camphorwood Villa, established and opened B-house parks in Changsha, Wuhan, Tianjin and other cities, and developed new housing supply schemes to meet the diversified and customized consumption needs of the market, which is transforming the development trend of the traditional rural housing market.
