TRACKUNIT'S OPERATING DATA PLATFORM IRISX KEEPS CUSTOMERS AT DIGITISATION FOREFRONT

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 30 (Bernama) -- Global contech Trackunit has launched its Operating Data Platform IrisX tailored specifically to the off-highway segment of the construction industry.

The new platform effectively breaks new ground by building on the tried-and-tested Iris platform allowing customers to leverage generative artificial intelligence and large language models in a dynamic and evolving, open environment.

Trackunit Chief Executive Officer, Søren Brogaard said it was Gartner that predicted the rise of Industry Cloud Platforms (ICPs) in a report in the fall of 2023, highlighting that more than 70 per cent of enterprises will use ICPs by 2027.

“IrisX is in essence an ICP for off-highway construction, and will exponentially transform productivity and speed to market. This is a purpose built platform that connects, streamlines and empowers data from the back office to the frontlines that takes its place within a wider Cloud and IT architecture,” he said.

In a statement, Brogaard also stated that IrisX is designed to help companies overcome the significant challenges of digital transformation, such as high upfront investment and the scarcity of tech talent.

“By offering a platform that coexists and integrates with existing tools, we ensure faster time to value and impact, making it easier for companies to scale their digital investments.

“With an accelerated time to value and at fractional cost, IrisX is developer friendly and will facilitate the combination of telematics data, operational data and commercial data in one secure and scalable platform with stronger cyber security while also guaranteeing privacy over data,” he added.

IrisX will also enable users to integrate equipment, fleet and site insights across their tech stack, knowing compliance and cyber security concerns are covered via privacy and governance protocols embedded through the ISO 27001 certification.

As a result of Trackunit's year-long efforts to harmonise and clean telematics and operational data in a well structured data lake, Brogaard emphasised that customers can be absolutely confident that they only share the data they want to share when they are ready to do so.

“Customers will also be able to use software development kits to build apps and extensions specifically tailored to their customer base, not only enhancing the service offering but extending the power of their telematics data, proprietary data, and third-party data,” he explained.

Looking ahead, Brogaard shared that IrisX will continue to evolve and develop dynamically for its customers that are already on board and will have a headstart on all the truly exciting developments that will unfold as the platform becomes ever more sophisticated.

A HOLDINGS, SHIZUOKA CITY SEAL DEAL TO ADDRESS PFAS CONTAMINATION ISSUES

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 29 (Bernama) -- A Holdings Co Ltd and Shizuoka City have signed a partnership agreement to solve per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination problems domestically and internationally using a subcritical water integrated system.

According to a statement, both parties have been working on a PFAS contamination removal demonstration experiment at Shizuoka City's "Miho Rainwater Pump Station" where high concentrations of PFAS were detected.

Based on the experimental results showing successful contamination removal of up to 88.7 per cent, a "Partnership Agreement for Promoting Efforts to Remove and Detoxify PFAS in the Environment and Implement the Subcritical Water Integrated System to Realize an Environmentally Advanced SDGs City", has been signed recently.

Prior to the agreement, in Shizuoka City, high concentrations of PFAS exceeding the national provisional guideline values have continued to be detected in waterways and well water around the factories that are the cause in Shimizu Ward.

Upon hearing that Shizuoka City had set up a countermeasure team within the city hall and was exploring ways to deal with this problem, A Holdings proposed a demonstration experiment for PFAS contamination removal using its subcritical water integrated system.

After laboratory verification, the company installed a pressurised floating separation device using its special technology at the Miho Rainwater Pump Station in July this year and began a demonstration experiment for PFAS contamination removal.

Based on the positive results, A Holdings and Shizuoka City will continue the demonstration experiments aimed at reducing contamination below the national provisional guideline values.

As a result, an agreement has been reached with the aims of promoting research and social implementation of PFAS contamination removal technology using a subcritical water integrated system, realising Shizuoka City as an environmentally advanced Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) city through business development based in the city.

Furthermore, A Holdings will also establish a new corporation, with Shizuoka City participating in it, to solve environmental problems worldwide, by promoting research and development for utilising the functions of this subcritical water integrated system in multiple ways.

EMPLIFI REVEALS INSTAGRAM REMAINS THE PLATFORM OF CHOICE FOR SINGAPORE'S PUBLIC SECTOR

● Instagram continues to grow as a key channel to engage with netizens.
● Statutory boards are significantly more active than ministries, producing triple the content.
● Singapore Army's #AnythingButRegular campaign is the standout performer.
 

SINGAPORE, Aug 21 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Emplifi, a leading customer engagement platform, today released its ‘Singapore Government Social Media Report – H1 2024.’ The report analyzes how 42 statutory boards and 16 ministries are using Facebook, X, Instagram, and YouTube to connect with Singaporeans on key issues like healthcare, education, and national defence.
 
“Social media is the heartbeat of modern communication. It’s no longer just a platform; it's a critical channel for building trust, transparency, and engagement,” said Varun Sharma, Senior Vice President and General Manager for EMEA and APJ, Emplifi. “This report delves deep into the Singapore government's digital footprint – we provide insights into the government's social media strategy by analyzing key metrics and understanding public sentiment to see how well it's engaging citizens.”
 
“The key takeaway is that Instagram continues to be a dominant force in Singapore's social media landscape, boasting a substantial user base, particularly among young demographics. The platform's popularity is underscored by its consistent position as the most engaging network, outperforming Facebook, YouTube, and X,” adds Sharma.
 
Statutory boards versus ministries
 
Statutory boards are significantly more active than ministries, producing triple the content in the first half of 2024. Both groups saw increased engagement compared to the previous year, with statutory boards and ministries experiencing 6.6% and 13.4% growth respectively. Overall content creation dropped by 42.5% from H1 2023, with X experiencing the largest decline (from 13,751 to 2,956 posts). Despite this decrease, interactions grew by 7%, reaching 3,552,720 in H1 2024 (3,323,381 in H1 2023). Instagram reigned supreme as the most engaging platform, capturing 61.4% of interactions, outperforming Facebook's 36.5%.
 
Most engaging campaigns
 
“The most effective campaigns skillfully combined compelling narratives with diverse media formats. By personalizing these stories to resonate with specific audiences, such as through language, they expanded their reach and fostered a strong sense of community,” said Sharma.
 
Singapore Army’s #AnythingButRegular campaign was the standout performer on social media during the first half of 2024, generating 331,224 interactions across Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Instagram proved to be the driving force behind the campaign's success, contributing to 72.67% of total interactions. By offering a candid glimpse into army life through personal stories, daily routines, and training experiences, the campaign resonated with audiences, particularly those with past or present military ties. The diverse range of media formats used to share these stories further enhanced engagement. Following closely behind, MuslimSG's Ramadan & Raya content secured the second spot with 69,418 interactions. NParks' evergreen campaign, #CityinNatureSG, claimed the third position with 56,224 interactions on Facebook and Instagram.
 
The top 5 most-watched videos on YouTube in H1 2024 accumulated between 2.2 and 8.5 million views each and featured a mix of government agencies: two by the Ministry of Health (MOH), one by Gov.sg, alongside another two by SkillsFuture. MOH racked up 16.88 million views from 47 YouTube videos, and their ‘Try not to pop the balloon!’ video, showcasing healthcare workers' skills with a playful twist, skyrocketed to the top with over 8 million views alone. SkillsFuture SG stood out with its short, engaging videos. These bite-sized clips, often featuring heartwarming stories, effectively captured audience attention and explained SkillsFuture initiatives clearly. Additionally, the availability of subtitles in Mandarin, Tamil, and Malay ensured accessibility for a wider demographic.
 
Singapore’s ministers boost public engagement through social media

Singaporean ministers are utilizing social media to build stronger relationships with citizens. With a substantial follower base on Facebook (55.75%) and Instagram (25.53%), ministers predominantly leverage these platforms, comprising nearly 90% of their content. In terms of audience engagement, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong boasted the highest interactions with 66.53% of engagement attributable to Instagram.

“Social media is a vital tool for Singaporean ministers to connect with the public, with Instagram and Facebook paving the way as the most popular platforms for government communication. We can see that visual content proves particularly effective in resonating with the Singaporean audience,” concludes Sharma.

Methodology

Emplifi analyzed social media performance across Singapore’s public sector, including 42 statutory boards and 16 ministries between 1 January – 30 June 2024. Emplifi collected and aggregated publicly available data through Emplifi Social Marketing, reviewing over 200 social media profiles across Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube on content, engagement, and sentiment.

SOLARMAX EXTENDS US PRESENCE WITH MAJOR COMMERCIAL SOLAR PROJECT IN CALIFORNIA

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 (Bernama) -- SolarMax Technology Inc (SolarMax), an integrated solar energy company, signed a non-binding term sheet for a significant new commercial solar project in California.

The project, a major mall in the San Jose area, represents another step forward in SolarMax' ongoing strategy to expand its solar development capabilities in the United States (US) commercial market.

SolarMax Chief Executive Officer, David Hsu in a statement said a key component of the company’s strategic growth plans is the expansion of its commercial solar development services in the US.

“By leveraging our experience in successful large-scale solar projects, we believe we are well-positioned to establish a major presence in the burgeoning US solar market, and completing this project would represent another important milestone on that journey,” he said.

The proposed California project is to include the development and management of a 4.17 megawatt (MW) photovoltaic (PV) solar power plant and a 2.0 MW energy storage system. As part of the project, SolarMax will also oversee the replacement of the mall’s roof to support the new solar infrastructure.

The Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for this project will provide a long-term framework that supports the financing, ownership, and operation of the solar and energy storage system. SolarMax will seek a PPA investor to fund the project, offering both immediate and sustained value over the agreement's duration.

Solar energy is the fastest-growing source of renewable energy in the US, with projections from the US Energy Information Administration that the country’s solar power generation will grow 75 per cent from 163 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) in 2023 to 286 billion kWh in 2025.

As a result, SolarMax is leveraging its proven large-scale solar project experience to seek to establish itself as a go-to provider for US commercial solar projects through the roll-out of comprehensive development services.

The company’s commercial solar development offerings include advanced technology, customised solutions, and a client-centric approach to project management, with a goal of delivering projects on time and within budget.
