Scout360 and Saimatrix Integrated Partner to Provide Hotels with Reliable ESG Data Management System and Capacity Building

Why This Partnership Matters

Hotels face two key hurdles: 

Knowledge: Understanding sustainability frameworks and how to implement them practically. 

Tools: Capturing the right data, analyzing it, and reporting with confidence. 

This is where Scout360 and Saimatrix come in. 

Saimatrix Integrated PLT will lead ESG capacity building for hotels through training and consultancy, ensuring hotel teams have the know-how to embed sustainability into daily operations. 

Scout360 is assisting by providing a platform that simplifies ESG data collection, analysis, and reporting, aligned with national and international frameworks such as SEDG, GRI and Bursa Malaysia’s sustainability guidelines. From  

By combining training and technology, we are giving hotels a more reliable and efficient way to manage their ESG journey. 

What Hotels Can Expect 

Through this MoU, we are committing to support hotels with both knowledge and tools. The partnership will: 

• Deliver hotel-focused ESG workshops that build practical skills and awareness. 

• Simplify compliance reporting with a platform that reduces administrative burden. 

• Enable hotels to track performance across energy, water, waste, and social impact with credible data. 

• Support certification readiness so hotels can strengthen credibility with auditors, guests, and corporate clients. 

What Our Leaders Are Saying 

Dr. Liew Chin Seng, CEO of Scout360, explains: 

“Without credible data, ESG reports can be doubtful and sometimes even labelled as greenwashing. Through proper software, we want to make ESG management less overwhelming and ensure hotels are audit-ready from the start.” 

From our partner’s side, Dr. Balan Balasundram, CEO of Saimatrix, shares: 

“This collaboration ensures that Malaysian hotels can move from ESG awareness to measurable progress, backed by credible data to track hotels’ ESG performance.” 

Looking Ahead 

Malaysia has set bold ambitions to lead in sustainable tourism across Southeast Asia. For hotels, adopting credible ESG practices is no longer just about compliance. It is about competitiveness, reputation, and long-term resilience. Guests are asking tougher questions, and corporate clients are making ESG a key procurement criterion. 

Through this partnership, Scout360 and Saimatrix are helping hotels strengthen their ESG reporting and management. By pairing Saimatrix’s hands-on expertise with Scout360’s technology, we are making it easier for hotels to track what matters, prove their progress, and tell their sustainability story with confidence. 

For us at Scout360, this MoU also marks a milestone in our journey. As an early-stage startup, our vision has always been to turn ESG from a challenge into an opportunity. Partnering with Saimatrix allows us to bring that vision to life in an industry where impact truly matters.
