What Willowglen does

Willowglen MSC Berhad is a Kuala Lumpur-based, Bursa Malaysia-listed (KLSE: WILLOW) investment holding company founded in 1972 that delivers proprietary SCADA-based remote monitoring and control solutions to enterprise infrastructure operators across Southeast Asia. Its core technology platform is the Integrated Supervisory Control System (ISCS), complemented by six adjacent products — Security Screening System (SSS), Integrated Monitoring System (IMS), Intelligent Transport System (ITS), Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Electric Vehicle Charger (EVC) and Energy Storage System (ESS) — applied to water and wastewater, oil and gas, electrical power and green energy, transportation, and commercial and residential buildings. The firm has delivered more than 1,300 projects worldwide and reports over RM160 million in outstanding orders while actively bidding on RM408 million of additional projects, with roughly 70% of the order book tied to Singapore and the balance spread across Malaysia, Vietnam and other markets.

The company generates revenue primarily through one-time project-based contracts (design, installation and commissioning of SCADA systems) plus recurring professional-services revenue from multi-year maintenance agreements on installed assets, supplemented by licensing-style economics via its 37.8% equity stake in Elixir II Pte Ltd following the April 2026 divestiture of its core Singapore automation subsidiary WSPL for up to RM215.2 million. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales targeting infrastructure operators and government entities through competitive tendering, supported by regional subsidiaries in Singapore (historically), Vietnam and a 50:50 cybersecurity joint venture with Singapore-listed Secura Group Ltd. More than 78% of staff are technical professionals, and the firm holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications, which function as procurement-gate qualifications for many infrastructure tenders.

The April 2026 corporate restructuring — sale of WSPL to Elixir II combined with stated intent to redeploy proceeds into new acquisitions to maintain listing compliance — marks a transition from an operating SCADA integrator toward an investment-holding model, with future cash flow dependent on the performance of the Elixir II equity stake and the success of yet-to-be-identified acquisition targets.
