Pestech Sdn. Bhd Pestech Sdn. Bhd deals with products, software and technical know-how in designing and implementing the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for electricity plants and substations. It has successfully implemented and commissioned this SCADA system for both local and international customers.
The company experienced rapid growth sinceshifting its operations from Johor Bahru to Kuala Lumpur in 2000. The success of the company is at tributed to its ability in formulating counter measures for overcoming challenges and obstacles. In order for Pestech Sdn Bhd to increase its competitiveness and meet market demand, it has to introduce new products. The new products include control and relay panels, remote terminal units, telecommunication equipment, substation probes and monitoring systems, Neutral Ear thing Resistors and High Voltage Isolators.
These products were supplied to various customers, not only in Malaysia, but also in overseas markets such as Brunei, Papua New Guinea, Dubai, Korea, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Cambodia.Mr. Paul Lim, the company’s CEO says, “To maintain competitivenes s, Pestech employs a dynamic, innovative and creative approach in extending the scope of what we can offer to the customer. Our goal is to be able to provide a one - stop solution.”
It also ensures its workforce is well trained, by providing overseas and local training to its staff. The management emphasises strongly on the need to create a sense of belonging to the company at all levels.Some of the major challenges the company is facing in its operations are in the areas of maintaining competitivenes s, technological advancement, meeting customer requirements, competition from MNCs, as well as maintaining and recruiting a “ first clas s” work force. The biggest challenge of all is its abilit y to provide a working environment and conditions that will enable the company to recruit and retain a high-performance work force.
Pestech received support and assistance from MATRADE Market Development Grant (MDG) and MIDF. The sales turnover in 2007 and 2008 were RM43,270,379 and RM51,596,284 respectively. Sales turnover for the company in 2009, peaked at RM79,083,000.
Total group turnover, taking into account contributions from branch offices in Brunei and Papua New Guinea amounted to RM86 million. The profit for 2007 was RM2,365,065 and for 2008, RM3,294,428. The estimated profit for year 2009 will be around RM 4.2 million to RM 4.5 million.Pestech moved into its new complex, combining workshop and office space in December 2009.

Based on this current market scenario, Pestech is confident to achieve a turnover of over RM100 mi llion in 2010. For year 2011, it is targeting RM120 million. For 2012, it should be achieving close to RM150 million.
On facing new challenges, Mr Paul Lim believes that it is important to continue to be cognizant of the needs to maintain competitiveness, introduce new products and services to achieve a sustainable grow th. The company established a reward scheme based on measureable performance of each staff. It also introduced a scheme to reward long service staff. It aims to recruit and maintain high quality staff and create a healthy corporate image.
The advancement of Pestech in the regional market has opened new oppor tunities to other SMEs in several ways. Other SMEs are given new contracts to supply components needed by Pestech whenever the company introduces and creates new products, ideas and as well as technology in the market. By using local machinery, the precision parts fabricator benefits from Pestech’s growth. Through its collaboration with foreign OEM, the company brings in new ideas and technology into the market.
Moving forward, Pestech intends to achieve strong presence in the East Asian region as the Turnkey EPCC contractor of choice for the power distribution and transmission projects.Therefore the capability and focus of the Design and Development department will have to be enhanced to enable development of new products. Pestech is also planning to venture into other par s of electric-powered engineering. For example, renewable energy system providers, generators and providing services to electricity users in the network reconfiguration to achieve optimal distribution of electricity.

Selamat menyambut Ramadan al mubaRak 1436H
Pada tanggal 18 Jun 2015 bersamaan 1 Ramadan 1436H adalah hari yang dinanti-nantikan oleh seluruh umat islam bagi menunaikan ibadah puasa, rukun islam yang ke-empat. Sempena bulan yang mulia ini, marilah kita melahirkan kesyukuran kepada Yang Maha Pencipta, Allah (S.W.T) kerana telah diberi peluang untuk bertemu sekali lagi bulan yang mulia ini. Ibadah puasa banyak memberi pengajaran untuk kita mensyukuri nikmat yang kita kecapi di Malaysia berbanding insan-insan lain yang kurang bernasib baik serta diuji dengan berbagai-bagai dugaan. Sempena bulan yang suci ini, marilah kita bermuhasabah memperbaiki kelemahan diri dari sifat-sifat sombong, ego serta sifat mazmumah lain, lantas bertekad untuk menjadi umat yang terbaik, menjalankan tugas dengan penuh komitmen, jujur, amanah dan berintegriti agar segala tindak tanduk kita semasa menjalankan tugas diterima sebagai suatu ibadah.
Amin.
