A dedicated project management team with wide experience and an excellent working relationship with the Public Works Department (JKR) and the Prime Minister's Department enabled SPK-Sentosa Corporation Bhd to complete the first phase of the Government Quarters project in Kuala Lumpur ahead of schedule.

Managing Director of the parent Sharikat Permodalan Kebangsaan Berhad (SPK Group) Saiful Aznir Shahabudin said the physical works for the 700 residential units of Phase 1 started in March 2001 and were completed in 30 months instead of 35 months.

He said the project team utilized in-house project management skills, and coupled with JKR's latest project management tools such as i-supervision, pictorial reporting and Primevera-based monitoring of works schedule, to ensure that potential delays were detected early and minimized. 

Located on 24.7 acres in Jalan Duta, the project comprises a RM200 million residential development and a RM55 million access road from Jalan Duta to the site. The remaining 156 units under Phase 2 are under construction.
