KUALA LUMPUR 11 March. - If there is a positive take to the COVID-19 outbreak, it is that businesses were propelled into embracing digitisation and the Internet of Things (IoT), especially when it comes to daily operations.
Brightnet ID System Sdn Bhd can attest to this, judging by the up-take of its Intelligent Key Management System KMS – an embedded web-based key management system that controls and tracks the usage and movement of keys in all buildings and facilities. The firm targets a 50% business growth by the end of the year.
"The pandemic presented a shift in businesses as everyone had to adjust to the new working from home culture. However, it also opened the door to more customers wanting to discuss and understand the world of information technology, networks, IoT, and automation, amongst others," said Vincent Foo Yoke Shen, Brightnet ID System Sales Director.
Intelligent Key Management System KMS was developed and manufactured in Singapore and since it was implemented in 2018 it has gained the nod of many customers from various trade including commercial buildings, retail and entertainment industries, oil and gas, educational institutions, healthcare, aviation and hospitality. The progress has allowed Brightnet ID System to target business growth of 50% in 2021, and 100% growth in 2022.
"The pandemic became a catalyst to the growth of digitisation and automation requirements – exactly we had visualised industries would need. With that in mind, we project more companies and organisations to come onboard as Intelligent Key Management System KMS users upon realising the benefits and convenience of our products.
"We are gearing up to implement some 30 projects this year. We can carry out projects nationwide seeing through its delivery, installation and support and we look forward to helping companies embrace the need of new-age solutions," Foo said.
Fuelled by the entry of 5G network, more fibre network coverage and higher internet bandwidth availability, it is projected that more companies will move toward the implementation of IoT and solutions using automation. The method presents a cost efficient way for industries to improve productivity, efficiency and maximise their resources.
"These times are crucial given the social distancing rule of thumb and the fact that businesses will still have to run. The implementation of Intelligent Key Management System KMS allows our customers to do exactly this while reducing human contact and through remote authorisation," Foo said.
Brightnet's Intelligent Key Management System KMS comprise:
- iKLAS Classic – the standard product that comes with an embedded web-based key management system that controls and tracks the usage and movement of keys in all buildings and facilities, and
- iKLAS Elite – an upgraded Electronic Key Management System equipped with a seventh industrial grade touch screen that allows for a more user-friendly experience.

"We are actively building a stronger team of engineers to carry out the integration of electrical, electronic and mechanical items, as well as connecting them to IT networks and systems," Foo said, citing the technical support of holding company Brightclick Solutions Sdn Bhd.
Brightclick Solutions has extensive experience in the work of integrating multiple components to an IT network and system, making it an IoT solution for clients.

We are also preparing our next products – our Mobile App and Desktop ID authentication solutions, e-KYC (know your customer), facial recognition and Artificial Intelligence profiling Solutions," Foo added.
