With companies facing hiring difficulties and manpower costs becoming increasingly high, many companies are now turning to technology as a solution to the problem, and one of the best examples is property management. Studies have shown that the industry of property management generally encounters problems in management, low efficiency, and managing too many facilities with too little manpower, which is why “Smart Property Management” is slowly emerging as a solution to all. Armitage Technologies has recently deployed for our client Hip Shing Hong, who has over 60 years of experience in the field, an IoT solutions applied on property management to help solve the problem. 

Founded in 1948, Hip Shing Hong manages over 100,000 square feet of commercial and factory floor space on properties covering the Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories. As its tenants include multinational corporations, investment banks, and local large conglomerates, efficient property management is very important. We installed for our client in their building’s lavatories a remote monitoring device which can send data through wireless network to its surveillance center for remote management. If flooding arose from its blocked lavatories and flows into its elevator shafts thereby damaging the elevators, alarm signals will be sent to notify staff to react swiftly. This can greatly reduce elevator malfunctioning and lower machinery depreciation rate, and staffs’ speedy action in response to equipment failure can also increase tenants’ satisfaction rate. With one simple system, our client’s operational costs is remarkably reduced and labor productivity increased and, not only that, system automation also vastly lowers labor intensity which in turn reduces staff turnover rate and solving the difficulties in hiring problem, killing two birds with one stone.

Armitage Technologies is now providing different IoT solutions for various industries. For more information on the project, please feel free to contact our business experts to further explore and discuss.
