3987 Jenoptik Robot has won an order from Malaysia, valued at over US$53 million, to install up to 550 stationary and mobile systems for monitoring red-light and speed violations and support the operation with comprehensive on-site services for a period of five years. The company will also provide additional on-site services, including the implementation of a comprehensive software solution covering the entire process chain.

The project is part of an initiative to improve road safety and covers the northern regions and east Malaysia. The so called ‘Automated Enforcement System’ of the state of Malaysia is globally considered to be one of the largest individual projects of its kind. Jenoptik Robot’s contracting body is the Malaysian company ATES Sdn. Bhd. (Automated Traffic Enforcement Systems), which, in turn, has been commissioned by the 3491 Malaysian Government. The new traffic safety systems are intended to improve the driving behaviour of motorists in Malaysia and to dramatically reduce the number of traffic deaths and serious accidents.

“This order re-establishes our Traffic Solutions division as a leading systems provider, in particular for large projects outside Europe,” says Michael Mertin, chairman of Jenoptik.

In spring 2011, Jenoptik Robot won a major order for traffic monitoring systems and equipment from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
