Productivity measuring tool (PMT)

▪ Labour Productivity measures any types

of construction methods as its parameters

only consider GFA and man day.

▪ The more gross floor area a manpower can

construct in a short period of time, the more

productive the construction project is.

OVERALL PRODUCTIVITY

Labour Productivity

Productivity Rate = Gross Floor Area (GFA)

Man-day

*GFA includes the total property square footage including

finished areas inside the property such as common areas,

lobbies, stairwells and etc.

*1 man-day = 1 manpower working for 1 day

Man-day = (no of workers/day) x (construction period)

GRADE PRODUCTIVITY RATE

(sq ft/man-day)

A 7.5 ≤ x < 10

B 5.0 ≤ x < 7.5

C 2.5 ≤ x < 5.0

D 0 ≤ x < 2.5

CURRENT IBS PRODUCTIVITY IN MALAYSIA

IBS Automated and robotic has productivity score more than 8.0 sq ft / man-day. Hence, robotics is important in driving the construction industry towards greater productivity.

Productivity rate in Malaysia:Conventional = 2.3 sq ft/man-day

Precast concrete system = 5.0 – 8.0 sq ft/man-day

Automated and robotic = > 8.0 sq ft/man-day

Recommendations

To encourage use of standard design (DeLIGHT, MyIOS, MySERENE, D3) for affordable housing projects.

Mandatory to obtain QLASSIC certification for affordable housing.

To achieve Productivity rating at least 6.0

To embark Construction 4.0:• Prefabrication and modular construction• Advanced building materials• Building information modelling

04

▪ Currently, the industry is at medium level of

prefabrication adoption but is heading into a more

rapid implementation of IBS in future.

▪ Advanced technology and modern methods of

construction using prefabrication and offsite

construction are needed to cope with current

global construction industry.

▪ CIDB and industry must work hand in hand to

implementing IBS in the ground level to delivering

efficient, sustainable and productive construction

environment by resolving the issues and

challenging for implementation of IBS.
