Overview
The Construction Industry
Transformation Programme (CITP) was developed to address the issues in the
industry and also to enact a transformation of the industry into one which is
modern and updated. Central to this the CITP’s aim to become the catalyst for
generating a succession of interlinked multiplier effects on a host of sectors,
to help transform Malaysia to be a developed nation with a sustainable
high-income economy.
The CITP is only the first step
in transforming the construction industry; the successful interdependence among
the various ministries and agencies is paramount for the sustainability of
Malaysia’s long-term goals. Once we overcome this inertia of who, what when,
where and how to start, this will lay the strong foundations for different
ministries and agencies to interlink and pull their sources and expertise to
help in this mission-critical national effort.
In line with the implementation
of the CITP, CIDB collaborates with myBIM centre and ABM Utara are initiating
to provide the Building Information Training (BIM) which is called as
Affordable BIM Training (ABT). This program is mainly targeting the industry
player such as Contractors, Architect, Engineer , Surveyor etc. to learn the
process of implementing the BIM process including the usage of tools and
managing the construction site by using the knowledge of BIM.
By implementing the BIM into the
project, Planners can select optimum sites. Architects can produce more
accurate designs with fewer errors, less waste, and closer alignment with the
owner’s vision. Engineers can increase coordination with architects and other
engineering disciplines, improving the reliability of their designs.
Contractors can make sure that constructibility issues are flagged early on
when changes are less expensive to make. Ultimately, owners will be able to use
the models far into the future as the basis of a comprehensive facility and
asset management program.
Adapting to the advantages BIM
offers requires investment in staff, processes, and technology. Approaching
these changes with a positive attitude will speed the transition and allow
firms to quickly realise the productivity and quality gains possible with BIM.
What is BIM?
- Building Information Modelling (BIM) is modelling technology and associated set of processes to produce, communicate and analyze digital information models for construction project life cycle.
- National BIM Steering committee 2013
- BIM allows for collaboration, optimisation, higher productivity, predictability and completeness.
Why BIM?
- Lean Construction
- More effective communication
- Clash detection
- Whole life costing
- Time based construction and in-use simulation can be made
- Cost reduction
- Facility management
- Competitive advantages
