Penang South Islands
Aligned with Penang’s 2030 vision for the creation of a liveable, green and well-planned city, the master plan is grounded by 3 anchors as its main key differentiators:
- ESG frameworks with resilient design and planning model to address climate change and focus on green mobility by ‘putting bicycles ahead of cars’
- Public Open Spaces in the form of Central Canal waterways, the Esplanade, Bay at Heart of the Island, Public Beach, Mangrove Wetlands constitute the largest green biodiverse and connected network in Penang. With a total area of 450 acres, each public open space will feature its own unique character and offer a wide array of activities to both local and international tourists.
- Smart City Services with the latest technology, with the Green Technology Park as the catalyst with its strategic location to next to Bayan Lepas FIZ and Penang International Airport.

Gamuda’s Next-Gen Digital IBS (Industrialised Building System) is an innovative solution and ecosystem that helps build quality housing right from the start.
Leveraging on today's digital design tools and robotic construction, the Next-Gen Digital IBS means flexibility in design, fast construction and superior quality finish.
The Next-Gen Digital IBS, anchored on Gamuda’s factory in Banting, Selangor, is all about sustainability. The 66-acre factory is 100% renewable energy (RE)-powered and in-built with IoT to enable AI, with a production capacity of 10,000 houses per annum. Solar panels covering 5% of the factory's rooftops are sufficient to power the factory and its robots.
Advantages of Gamuda’s Next-Gen Digital IBS
Eliminates redundancies, defects, overlaps and resource wastage
Shortens planning and construction time
Speeds up delivery
Reduces future home renovations
Enhanced and consistent quality
High precision and accuracy
55% reduced reliance on foreign labour
40% reduction in embodied carbon
Better governance being IoT-enabled
Trackable, quantifiable data
Results that can be validated, analysed and assessed

Gamuda’s Next-Gen Digital IBS (Industrialised Building System) is an innovative solution and ecosystem that helps build quality residential, commercial and infrastructure developments right from the start.
From cloud design, BIM integration, robotic automation and production – this full suite of digital solutions delivers flexibility in design, fast construction and superior quality finish.
Our factories have the largest manufacturing capacity in Malaysia. Gamuda is ramping up its production capacity to support its data centre project wins – AIMS Cyberjaya Block 2 (completed within 8 months in January 2024) and the upcoming AIMS Cyberjaya Block 3, as well as a hyperscale data centre in Elmina Business Park.
- Design flexibility: Setting us apart is design flexibility built into our digital application that enables design and construction without limitation. These applications can be used to build landed houses, high-rise buildings, data centres, and retail lots, amongst others.
- Greater precision and high-quality finish: Designs are completed online on a shared platform, allowing for minimal design errors and improved efficiency planning in the construction phase. Using AI-BIM integrated IoT-enabled robotics, we achieve quality precision, reduce reliance on unskilled labour and minimise wastage to almost none.

Innovative Solutions
AI IoT robotic manufacturing system improved the materials used in making concrete panels
Clash analysis in cloud-based 3D building information model (BIM) allows for precise pre-planning
BIM augmented reality mobile application called BIMAR allows more accurate inspection
40% faster delivery
Productivity can be monitored remotely
Like Lego bricks, home parts will be delivered in pods or boxes to the construction site and assembled from there
40% reduction in embodied carbon
All products have QR codes that can be tracked throughout the entire supply chain
Autonomous product production using data and learnings through factory IoT network and previous iterations
The vision for Gamuda Next-Gen Digital IBS is to transform the current construction industry through the adoption of a fully digital ecosystem.
The innovation brought about by the top-to-toe, end-to-end digital solution and ecosystem is evident. Gamuda believes there's much more to be explored.
