Summary
The EMSD rolled out the Digital Log-books for lifts/escalators in November 2022 to enable responsible persons for lifts/escalators, registered lift/escalator contractors, trade practitioners and the EMSD to monitor, record, manage and analyze the works records of lifts/escalators in real time through a mobile app or web portal, facilitating joint monitoring of works by various stakeholders and thus uplifting the management and safety of lifts/escalators. Since its official roll-out, the Digital Log-books have received high acclaim from the property management sector and more than 60 000 lifts/escalators have adopted the Digital Log-books, accounting for 70% of all lifts/escalators in Hong Kong.
In this seminar, the EMSD would introduce the design and benefits of the Digital Log-books system, as well as new upgrades to the system including an enhanced dashboard and AI image analytics of
lift/escalator photos uploaded to the system. Fellow BSOMES members would also share success stories of adoption of the Digital Log-books system. All members with an interest in lift and escalator management are welcome to join.
