HONG KONG, Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — SU Group Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: SUGP) (“SU Group” or the “Company”), an integrated security-related engineering services company in Hong Kong, today announced a milestone agreement to install a Smart Site Safety System (“4S”) at a major Hong Kong hospital. This represents the Company’s entrance into a new emerging, high priority government mandated market that seeks to use artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to create safer and more efficient working environments. Financial terms were not disclosed but the Company noted it expects this to have a positive impact on its full year sales growth.
The Hong Kong Government is prioritizing integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in Smart Site Safety Systems or 4S to enhance safety management systems and increase further excellence on the safety performance in public works contracts. To accelerate the rate of adoption, 4S became mandatory on July 1, 2024 in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Government’s Works Branch Development Bureau previously noted that in reviewing construction accidents that occurred in public works contracts in recent years, quite a number of them, especially the serious ones, could have been possibly avoided if prior alerts could be timely issued to the site personnel concerned.
4S systems are designed to leverage a network of IoT sensors placed throughout work sites to continuously monitor a variety of important areas including structural stability, environmental conditions, and worker movements. This can help improve the site safety performance through early identification of potentially dangerous incidents or dangers and taking immediate follow-up mitigation actions. In addition, by using AI to analyze real-time data collected by a 4S system, safety problems can be determined and the system can help prevent accidents before they occur by providing immediate insights into site conditions and potential hazards.
SU Group’s Chairman and CEO, Dave Chan, commented, “We applaud the Hong Kong Government for its leadership in embracing the latest AI and IoT technologies through the implementation of 4S to reduce accidents and promote a safer, more efficient working environment. There are extensive opportunities at virtually every work site, which are critical given the potential hazards and the number of avoidable deaths each year. It was natural for us to actively pursue this emerging market opportunity given its size, government incentives and our long track record of experience developing industry leading security solutions.”
SU Group’s 4S system integrates AI and IoT to provide:
