* The alternative Head for the committee undertakes all responsibility and decisions in any cases where
the head of committee is required recuse himself/ herself over conflict-of-interest issues over the job that
is assigned or is unavailable to undertake the responsibility at that point in time.

The committee continue to work around its published 2020 Schedule of Rates to ensure consistency and
impartially. However, under advisement of the Malaysia Competition Commission (myCC), the rates are
no longer published through its website and social media platforms, only provided through direct
enquiries. There has not been a revision to the schedule of rate throughout the period.

PSAM reiterated that its schedule of rates is NOT a price control mechanism or minimum scale of fees.
Private service providers are free to quote prices at their discretion, and PSAM does not compete directly
with them competitively. The rate works as a price of last resort for clients to fall back on in the event of
possible collusion of price control to charge exorbitant fees to clients which will work against the agenda
of safe playgrounds. The schedule of rates area as attached in this report.

The technical services committee remains NON-COMMERCIALLY oriented. It DOES NOT solicit for
business in proactive manners. All quotations are given as a reply to direct enquiries to PSAM, NOT by
approaching potential clients. All prices quoted are based on the schedule of rates. There are no discounts
regardless of project size, value, terms of payments or any other factors other than the discounts given to
its corporate member under the corporate member benefits. Any other services that done at discounted
prices outside the schedule of rates shall be of special projects deemed beneficial for PSAM safety agenda,
approved by the council.

Throughout the period of DEC 2021 to Nov 2022, the committee have done a total of 5 quotations. The
number of quotations is low as its recurring customers uses the schedule of rates as its quoted price.
Enquiries are also furnished with schedule of rates rather than official quotations, unless specifically
request by clients. It had also undertaken 8 projects during this period consisting of 1 endorsement jobs,
1 floor impact attenuation drop test, 6 inspection sites involving a total of 6 CPSIs. As the information of
the projects are deemed confidential, all details and photos are not published in this public report but are
kept in PSAM confidential files.

Total revenue generated from the technical service amounts to RM27,425 throughout the period. They
fees collected are in turn paid to the CPSI for services rendered at a fixed percentage. As PSAM is a non-
profit organization, all proceeds and surplus from the revenue generated are retained within PSAM
accounts.

There are no new CPSI registered with PSAM during the period. As per our records, there are 10 CPSI in
PSAM records with certificates valid till mid-2024.

The Technical Services Committee thanks all the appointed CPSIs that carried out their roles and
responsibilities in a professional and timely manner when being assigned the job. The committee have
