Jati Tinggi unit secures RM33mil DC job

PETALING JAYA: Jati Tinggi Group Bhd’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Jati Tinggi Holding Sdn Bhd, has accepted a letter of award for sub-contract works on a 275 kilovolts or kV bulk power supply project for a data centre (DC) in Gerbil, Negri Sembilan.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia on Nov 10, the group said the contract, worth RM33.1mil excluding service tax, is on a fixed rate basis subject to re-measurement. The award was issued by a main contractor and accepted on the same day.

The works cover the supply, design, installation, testing and commissioning of two circuits of 275kV power cables linking a transition yard to the DC substation. They also include building the transition yard, overhead line T-off works and secondary system modification works, all to support the DC’s interim power supply needs.

The contract runs for nine months from the notice to start work, with a 12-month defect liability period after completion.
