Sunway Construction Group Bhd (SunCon), which indirectly owns SCSB, said the sub-contract works relate to the construction and installation of mechanical and electrical systems, including all associated ancillary works, for a data centre to be built in Selangor for a United States-headquartered multinational technology corporation.
“The sub-contract works are for a period of 36 months and are expected to be completed by the second quarter (2Q) of 2027,” it said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia.

It said the project work was scheduled to start no later than 15 May 2024 and would be completed by 2Q 2027.
The construction company expects the sub-contract to contribute positively to the earnings of the group for the financial year ending 31 December 2024 onwards.
