SDPW showcases “Bu‘ud” smart platform at GITEX Global 2025

Advanced innovation for remote monitoring and proactive maintenance

The Bu‘ud platform is an advanced innovation designed to monitor government projects and facilities remotely and detect faults proactively and intelligently, without the need for maintenance requests. It uses advanced sensor systems and data analytics powered by artificial intelligence, enabling maintenance teams to respond swiftly and ensure the sustainability of government facilities.

Real-time performance monitoring and early alerts

Engineer Maryam Taqi, Director of the IT Centre at the Department, explained that the platform was developed in-house by specialised teams to serve as a digital tool for monitoring performance indicators and issuing instant alerts when any malfunction is detected. This supports effective proactive maintenance and minimises service interruptions.

Improving response times and user safety

Engineer Hadef Al Khadr, Director of the Building Maintenance Division, added that the system will enable maintenance teams to monitor the condition of government buildings and facilities accurately, improve response times to faults, and ensure the safety and comfort of users.
