KUALA LUMPUR: Nova MSC Bhd's wholly-owned subsidiary, novaCITYNETS Pte Ltd (NCN), has bagged a RM4.65 million contract from the Urban Redevelopment Authority of Singapore to implement and provide maintenance support for an Intelligent Code Checking System (ICCS).

In a statement, Nova MSC said the contract involves the adoption of Nova MSC's cutting-edge FORNAX ePlanCheck system to undertake the implementation of the ICCS in the city-state.

FORNAX is a module driven by Artificial Intelligence to automate the checking process of 3D BIM Building Plans and compute the Gross Floor Area (GFA), thus cutting down the process of manual GFA calculation to just hours, as compared to several weeks previously.

The contract marks Nova MSC's second government contract in Singapore after its RM15.4 million contract from the Public Utilities Board, which was clinched in June 2018. - Bernama
