Smart, Safe and Citizen-Centric Innovations

Smart, safe and citizen-centric – these are the key tenets that underpin SURF (Solutions for Urbanised Future), NCS’ vision for a future where next-generation technologies are harnessed to empower individuals and create vibrant and sustainable communities and cities.

Through SURF, NCS will create and deliver innovative solutions that impact the lives of residents and transform public services. An important aspect of our vision is to use technology to help solve problems and address challenges that arise from globalisation and rapid urbanisation.

NCS understands this evolving landscape and has designed the necessary tools to help build smarter cities.

The creation of a Smart and Safe City will involve a whole chain of technologies. Key enablers include data and analytics, sensing technology, mobility, security, machine-to-machine, social networking and the cloud.

SURF will also lead smart city innovations in these six key areas: SURF@PublicSafety™, SURF@Transport™, SURF@Healthcare™, SURF@Education™, SURF@Enterprise™ and SURF@Energy™.
