A modern sub-urban retail development in the new Setia Alam township. It is the first retail mall in Malaysia to be certified by the Green Building Index.
FULL STORY
Three key performance indices were set at the beginning of the project, which are completion within time, cost and in full compliance to the environmental, health and safety compliance.
The client is a JV Company between an Investment Fund and a professional asset management company. In order to fulfill its high requirement on stakeholder’s return, the project team had to comply and satisfy the requirements of both JV partners in the delivery of the project especially the financial parameters of the project feasibility.
As the tenancy spaces were progressively leased, the tenant requirements had to be incorporated during construction which resulted in various coordination issues and budget constraints. The tenancy design guidelines and management of tenant requirements within the specified time and budget needed to be coordinated with the base building design and construction while maintaining the budget, schedule, quality and safety of the project delivery.
