R U Out
Sunshine Plaza uses R U OUT, an easy-to-use software platform for Tenants and Facility Management teams to better manage emergency incidents and evacuations.
The system has been engineered by veteran firefighters to streamline building evacuations and provide responders with the critical information they need. In an emergency, simply scan the QR code at your tenancy to instantly alert the Chief Warden and report yourself as safe.
Retailers are highly encouraged to become familiar with the system as it will be critical in the event of an emergency.
