To support local SMEs, the IMDA has developed an array to schemes which are tailored to their specific needs.
SMEs can also apply for schemes such as IRAS’ Productivity and Innovation Credit (“PIC”) or find out other government assistance and grant on SME Portal.
Examples:
Optimising the deployment of field workers (cleaners, maintenance, delivery, inspectors, etc.) through higher visibility of needs and availability of workers
Better use of logistics vehicles through smart queue systems and information from traffic systems
Smarter automation through the use of sensors and robots in F&B, retail, construction and transport
New business from the Smart Environment as Singapore uses more energy management and sustainable environment technologies (such as smart lighting, emission detection, etc.)
