HONG KONG, 12th November 2016: BAI Communications Company, Radio Frequency Engineering (RFE) has achieved the Bronze Quality Award in the MTR Projects Quality, Safety, Environmental and Stakeholder Engagement Awards held 11th November in Hong Kong.

RFE held off competition from more than 100 MTR civil and EM contractors, to claim bronze for its outstanding quality performance on contract 761 KTE of the Kwun Tong Line Extension project.

BAI’s Managing Director, Transit Systems/Large Venues, Chris Jaeger said the award was a testament to the quality and performance that RFE promised as a leader and innovator in its field.

“RFE’s cutting edge technology and unique engineering solutions enable it to operate at premium performance across a broad industry spectrum,” Mr Jaeger said.

The Contract 761 KTE encompasses the radio services for MTR Corporation, Fire Services Department (FSD) and Hong Kong Police (HKP) – the radio system RFE provides is vital for the daily operations for the Kwun Tong Line Extension.

The Kwun Tong Line Extension has successfully commenced passenger service in October 2016. The opening of the extension of the Kwun Tong Line will bring greater convenience for passengers travelling to and from Ho Man Tin and Whampoa and its vicinity, providing them with seamless connections to MTR’s integrated Hong Kong railway network.

The MTR Projects Quality, Safety, Environmental and Stakeholder Engagement Awards recognise and encourage outstanding performance by contractors and consultants on its new railway projects.
