Committed to leveraging the use of innovation and technology (I&T), the EMSD has been customising suitable I&T solutions for client venues. Recently, in furnishing the E&M facilities of the new Immigration Headquarters (HQ), we introduce the smart integrated Building Management System (iBMS) to the buildings, with a view to effectively boosting asset management efficiency, and thereby reducing labour and time costs required in daily operation.
The new Immigration HQ will adopt various smart systems, including the Smart Access Control System and Smart Directory System, to strengthen management of and provide convenience to persons entering and leaving the buildings. With facial recognition devices installed at the staff entrance, the Smart Access Control System will only allow authorised personnel with valid access cards or verified biometric identities to access the buildings, enhancing the security level and operational efficiency of the new Immigration HQ. Besides, the Smart Directory System can guide visitors to their destinations through an interactive digital display.
Apart from that, the Fever Screening System and Headcount Sensor Control System will also be installed in the new HQ to reduce the risk of disease transmission and manage the flow of people. The Fever Screening System will check the body temperature of persons entering the buildings through thermal imaging technology, facilitating early detection of and timely assistance to persons with abnormal temperature. The Headcount Sensor Control System will make use of sensors installed in the common area of the buildings and dynamic technologies to count and record the number of visitors in real time more accurately, thus helping the Immigration Department to better manage the crowd and deploy its staff.
Before commencement of the project, the EMSD actively communicates with the Immigration Department to understand their needs and recommends the most appropriate innovative technology accordingly. Throughout the entire project implementation, from design, planning, contractor management, installation and testing to delivery, we work closely with our client, with a view to providing the most suitable and effective smart E&M solutions to enhance the daily operational efficiency of the venue.
