Rejuvenated Hougang Town Centre among winners of HDB design award – CNA (channelnewsasia.com)

” CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTIVITY

The 10 projects that received HDB Construction Awards achieved CONQUAS (Construction Quality Assessment System) scores above 90, with Tampines GreenView and Meadow Spring @ Yishun among the developments attaining the CONQUAS STAR.

CONQUAS is a quality benchmarking tool used by the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) – developments with the CONQUAS STAR have scores above 95 for exemplifying quality workmanship and good construction processes.

Ho Lee Construction’s project team had “raised construction productivity” for Tampines GreenView by utilising Virtual Design & Construction (VDC), a 3D building visualisation platform, said HDB.

This allowed the team to create virtual reality mock-ups of design plans “to coordinate construction activities holistically”, preventing abortive work during actual construction, added HDB.

The team also used a mobile application for efficient documentation and tracking of safety and quality inspections. “
