Predictmedix Inc (CSE:PMED) (OTCQB:PMEDF), an artificial intelligence company developing disruptive tools for impairment testing and healthcare, revealed that it has won a 24-month, multi-unit contract to deploy Safe Entry Stations throughout the North American operations of Flow Water Inc.
The Toronto-based company said the partnership marks the “successful completion of its initial pilot,” as the technology is now scaled and deployed across all of Flow’s operations both in Canada and the US.
A pioneer in the health and wellness arena, Flow was one of the first in Eastern Canada to partner with Predictmedix and Juiceworks Exhibits (JUICEWORKS) to implement Safe Entry Stations at their Aurora facilities in August last year.
“North America’s first socially responsible artisan alkaline water plant, Flow continues its spirit of innovation by incorporating AI-powered solutions to improve operational efficiencies,” noted the company.
Initially deployed as a beta site, Safe Entry quickly became an integral part of Flow's health and safety protocol. The robust multi-symptom screening gave a sense of security to the workforce. Flow has now struck a multi-unit revenue contract for two years and will be expanding the program to their remaining facilities in Aurora, Ontario, Verona and Virginia.
"Implementing Safe Entry at our plants has dramatically decreased our absenteeism and increased employee peace of mind. Keeping our staff safe is top priority, and as such, we were determined to implement the best available solution, which we found in Safe Entry," Flow Water founder and executive chairman Nicholas Reichenbach said in a statement.
Designed by infectious disease experts, Predictmedix’s Safe Entry Stations use artificial intelligence to analyze seven different symptoms associated with coronavirus (COVID-19) and other infectious diseases. Within fractions of a second, a green or red light appears, identifying those who are exhibiting symptoms.
Jonathan Auger who is the president and founder of JUICEWORKS said Flow is "a long-time client" and the company is “honoured to support them during this challenging time.”
Dr Rahul Kushwah, the COO of Predictmedix, echoed the sentiments.
"Flow has been one of the earliest adopters of our technology and with them seeing a long-term value in our technology to keep their staff safe is a further testament to the utility of our technology in creating safe workplace environments,” said Kushwah. “We are honoured to support them by deploying our technology throughout their operations in North America."
