Contract details and project scope

As reported by The Edge Malaysia, West River Bhd, through its wholly owned subsidiary West River Engineering Sdn Bhd, has secured two M&E subcontracts with a combined value of RM17.85 million.

One contract, worth RM11 million, involves a proposed apartment development in Puchong, Selangor. China Construction Development (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd awarded the work for the residential development by Interpile (M) Sdn Bhd, which is scheduled for completion on 17 Nov 2028.

The other contract, worth RM6.85 million, covers the air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation system for the Park Green serviced apartments at Pavilion Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur. BUCG (M) Sdn Bhd awarded the work, which includes the installation, testing and commissioning of the ACMV system for the residential development by Regal Path Sdn Bhd. The development comprises 453 serviced apartments in two blocks, along with a basement level, a 10-storey podium and dedicated resident facilities.

Both Interpile and Regal Path are subsidiaries of Malton Bhd.

Implications for group growth

West River managing director Lim Yong Lai said the group remains focused on disciplined execution, quality, safety and cost management across its project portfolio.

He said the latest appointments also reinforce the company’s strategy of pursuing projects that align with its existing technical strengths and support sustainable long-term growth.

The contract wins follow industrial-sector work announced by the group on 5 Oct: a RM17.5 million subcontract for electrical, extra-low-voltage, security and solar panel systems at E-Metro Logistic Park in Bandar Bukit Raja 2, Selangor.

West River shares closed up 1.5 sen, or 3.41%, at 45.5 sen on Monday, giving the group a market capitalisation of RM162.75 million.
