A future ecosystem of Regulatory Approval of Building Works that accelerates the transformation of the Construction Industry
About
Harnessing the power of digitalisation and technology, CORENET X will allow Qualified Persons (QPs, i.e. professional engineers and registered architects) to submit a three-dimensional model of a development or building - created and developed digitally through Building Information Modelling (BIM) to the regulatory agencies.
It allows the project team, which includes the QPs, to collaborate and review their designs in the model together, detect possible major conflicts before construction, and produce a coordinated BIM model for submission and regulatory approval. It changes the current practice of QPs dealing separately with multiple regulatory agencies, and producing different versions of building plans thereafter.
Led by BCA and URA and supported by GovTech, CORENET X was developed in close collaboration with the other public agencies¹ and leading built environment professionals, firms, and Trade Associations and Chambers (TACs). It is slated for implementation by the end of 2023.
¹ CORENET X comprises of the following public agencies: BCA, URA, GovTech, HDB, JTC, LTA, NEA, NParks, SCDF and SLA.
