INDUSTRIAL BUILDING SYSTEM (IBS) IMPLEMENTATION COURSE IN THE GOVERNMENT PROJECT OF THE SOUTHEAST JOHOR DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (KEJORA) YEAR 2022

KEJORA through the Social Development & Rural Development Division (PSPD) has implemented an industrial building system (IBS) implementation course in the KEJORA government project 2022 at the Dewan KEJORA Bandar Penawar and CIDB Johor Bahru on 21 to 23 September 2022.
The opening ceremony of the program was officiated by the manager of Social Development & Rural Development, En. Sh. Khayulzahri bin Sh. A.Raof.
A total of 20 G1 class contractors from KEJORA (Kota Tinggi & Kluang district) have participated in this 3-day course. The objective of this course is to improve the understanding of industrial building systems (IBS), identification, CITP, government policies and the importance of IBS in the development industry and towards sustainable development.
In addition, contractors who take this course obtain a Certificate of competence and skills (SKK) which is recognized by the CIDB which gives an advantage to contractors to enter construction projects in government agencies.
“Industrialised Building System” (IBS) is a prefabricated construction technique or building construction method in which components are manufactured under controlled conditions (in a factory or on a construction site), carried and installed in a building construction workplace with minimal use of workers. IBS should be used in conjunction with a Pre-Approved Plan (PAP) when implementing the project.
Hopefully this KEJORA effort will be the starting point for all contractors involved to adopt and apply the IBS method in construction.
