Local construction firms adopt ESG registry to secure more projects

Investors are expected to place a higher green premium on ESG-certified assets.

Seven local construction companies adopted ESGpedia—an end-to-end suite of sustainability solutions—to achieve higher success rates in securing projects.

According to ESGpedia, investors are expected to place a higher green premium on ESG-certified assets in Asia Pacific, especially regarding the acquisition and development of green buildings.

“As sustainability criteria continue to grow in government tenders, these requirements will inevitably spill over into the private sector,” ESGpedia said.

The platform’s use cases include company-level reporting, project-level reporting, contractor engagement, and Scope 3 calculation.

The Housing Development Board (HDB) has announced plans to track and disclose Scope 3 emissions, including Build-to-Order, Home Improvement Programme, and Neighbourhood Renewal Programme, amongst others.

Leveraging the platform’s Scope 3 Module, Wee Hur Construction determined the type of data required to collect from their subcontractors every month.

The company can upload the relevant data straightforwardly onto the platform, saving time. It can now monitor its carbon emissions and compile annual and monthly data for ESG reporting and comparisons.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.
