The Director of Public Works Sarawak, YBrs. Ir. Ts. Gs. Br. PMr. Dr. Cassidy anak Morris, conducted a working visit to the site of the Bangunan Arkib Sarawak, a key development initiative for the state. The project is intended to preserve and conserve valuable archival materials and heritage assets of Sarawak. Bangunan Arkib Sarawak plays a significant role in safeguarding the state’s documentary heritage, ensuring that important records are systematically preserved, accessed, and studied by future generations. As part of efforts to enhance construction efficiency and quality, the project adopts Building Information Modelling (BIM). The application of BIM aims to improve project delivery quality and information exchange among stakeholders, while enabling more effective 3D modelling, visualisation, coordination, analysis, and project documentation. The implementation of BIM in this project reflects the commitment of the Public Works Department Sarawak to adopting modern technologies to enhance effectiveness and efficiency in construction project management.
