Our Vision for the Future
Guided by Singapore’s Green Plan 2030, Ho Lee Group is committed to advancing sustainability and digital innovation in all aspects of our business. Our future goals include:
Expanding renewable energy initiatives and exploring innovative green technologies.
Continuing to lead the industry in digital transformation through IDD and BIM.
Achieving higher recycling rates for construction and demolition waste.
We invite our clients, partners, and stakeholders to join us in building a greener and more sustainable future. Together, we can create a lasting impact for generations to come.
Environmental Initiatives
Sustainability is ingrained in how we operate. As GGBS Star Builders, Ho Lee Construction and Wee Poh Construction Co. is at the forefront of implementing environmentally responsible practices:
Harnessing Solar Energy:
In collaboration with Engie, we have installed solar panels on the rooftops of Ho Lee Construction House, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. This initiative underscores our commitment to renewable energy and aligns with Singapore’s sustainability goals. Engie’s expertise has been instrumental in planning, installation, and commissioning, making this project a shining example of innovation and collaboration.
Integrated Digital Delivery (IDD):
By embracing Integrated Digital Delivery (IDD) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC), we revolutionize the construction process, enhancing resource efficiency and reducing environmental impact. With Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a cornerstone, we integrate the entire building process into a Master Schedule in virtual reality, enabling precise planning, collaboration, and waste minimization.
Sustainable Materials:
We prioritize eco-friendly materials such as recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and geopolymer concrete, contributing to a circular economy and reducing the environmental footprint of our projects.
Waste Management and Efficiency:
Through digital material tracking, advanced precast technologies, and sustainable construction methods like Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA), we minimize construction waste while streamlining processes.
Social Impact
Our people and community are at the heart of everything we do. Through various initiatives led by our Social & Recreational Committee, we create a positive and inclusive work environment:
Employee Well-being
We organize team-building activities, sports competitions, and recreational events to foster a strong sense of camaraderie and improve overall well-being.
Skill Development and Growth
We invest in training and development programs, empowering our workforce to reach their full potential and drive excellence in their roles.
Community Engagement
Ho Lee Group actively contributes to the community through volunteering programs, charitable donations, and impactful social projects. Our goal is to make a difference beyond the workplace.
Governance Excellence
We believe that strong governance is the foundation of sustainable growth. Our commitment to ethical, transparent, and accountable practices is reflected in:
Regulatory Compliance

Our IDD Journey
Ho Lee Group embarked on its IDD and BIM journey in 2012 with the Heron Bay EC project. Since then, we have made significant strides in digital transformation:
Digital Construction:
We utilize BIM for advanced applications such as clash detection, construction sequencing, and facility management. By leveraging digital tools, we optimize resource efficiency and reduce project timelines.
Advanced Construction Technologies
We incorporate Prefabricated Pre-finished Volumetric Construction (PPVC), Prefabricated Bathroom Units (PBU), Modular Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems, to streamline construction processes, minimize waste, and enhance sustainability.
Commitment to Excellence
By aligning with Singapore’s Built Environment Industry Transformation Map (ITM), we integrate work processes, connect stakeholders, and continuously invest in emerging technologies to stay ahead of the curve.
