More than 500 firms tap construction productivity fund

More than 500 construction firms have tapped on the Construction Productivity and Capability Fund.

 

Some S$9 million of the S$250 million fund has been given to construction companies to adopt productivity-improving technologies and innovations.

The CPCF was launched in June 2010 as part of a roadmap to improve the competitiveness of the sector.

Under the roadmap, the local construction industry is also required to adopt a Building Information Modeling process by 2015. According to the Building and Construction Authority the industry is on track to meet the 2015 target.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
