All public and private sector construction projects worth RM10mil and above are required to adopt the Building Information Modelling (BIM) system, says Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan.
The Deputy Works Minister said a new working committee will be formed and combined with the existing committee for Industrialised Building System (IBS) to oversee technology-related matters for all construction projects.

00:00I see from the many papers published in GeoCitra 2024, there are two papers on BIM, Building
00:15Information Modelling.
00:18I would like to say that the National Development Action Council, which is chaired by Prime Minister
00:27and myself, has agreed to expand the use of BIM to government and private projects, which
00:40will be implemented from 1st August 2024 for new projects.
00:46We ask for all efforts through BIM to be expanded because we do not want incidents that have
01:06happened in the past to be avoided.
01:11For example, the demolition of buildings in Kuala Lumpur.
01:19BIM is not only for buildings, but also for buildings and roads.
01:29Yesterday, we discussed in the post-cabinet meeting how to implement BIM.
01:41Therefore, a resolution was established by the Chief Executive Officer to implement all
01:51new technologies in building and road construction.
02:03Previously, we had a resolution by the KSU on the IBS, Industrialised Building System.
02:13Then, the direction from the National Development Action Council was to implement BIM modelling
02:24for projects worth 10 million and above.
02:28Therefore, we have combined BIM and IBS in the name of new construction technology.
02:39When we have BIM, Building Information Modelling, a 3D model for construction, which involves
02:50from the top of the building to the bottom of the building to the bottom of the land,
02:55we will understand it more accurately to build and reduce all unwanted incidents.
03:03BIM has been in force since 1st August.
03:07Today is 4th September.
03:12So, there are two things.
03:18Firstly, the power plant.
03:20Secondly, there is software from Malaysia.
03:26I think the software they want to create is CIDB.
03:32I will inform them how UTM can be involved.
03:38So that we can reduce the cost of BIM software.
03:42How is the road in Kuala Lumpur safe?
03:46I cannot comment on that.
03:48I will ask the Minister of Regional Development, Dr Zalihar.
03:54Of course, he has information.
03:57We just want to provide a solution.
04:00And this BIM solution is for all parties.
04:04All cities, all regions, all buildings.
04:07It is a technology effort that we hope can help all new projects in new areas.
