MGB BHD reinforced its commitment to construction quality and continuous improvement through its World Quality Day 2026 celebration at Skyria D’Island, Puchong, Selangor.
Organised by MGB Bhd group's Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QAQC) department, the event brought together 70 participants, including representatives from MGB's board of directors and senior management, alongside a representative from the Construction Research Institute of Malaysia (Cream) – a subsidiary of the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) Malaysia.
The celebration recognised the importance of quality management and the contributions of individuals who maintain and improve construction standards across MGB's operations.
The event came as MGB continues to demonstrate progress in construction workmanship, with its Kita Bestari development achieving a Quality Assessment System in Construction (QLASSIC) score of 81%, the group's highest recorded score to date.
This achievement built on the 79% scores recorded by both Kita Sejati and Idaman Melur in 2025.
Across five projects assessed in FY2025, MGB recorded an average QLASSIC score of 77%, exceeding the group's minimum quality benchmark of 70% for new projects.
Developed by CIDB Malaysia, QLASSIC provides an objective assessment of construction workmanship against recognised industry standards, enabling contractors and developers to evaluate performance and identify opportunities for improvement.
Commenting on the group's commitment to quality, MGB Bhd group executive chariman Tan Sri Ir Dr Lim Hock San said, “Every home we build carries a responsibility to the people who will eventually live in it. While construction methods and technologies continue to evolve, our responsibility to deliver quality remains unchanged.
“At MGB, we believe quality is not measured only by the completion of a project, but by the confidence and trust we build with our customers. This is the standard we strive to uphold as we continue growing our business.”
Behind these achievements is a coordinated effort involving MGB's project teams, engineers, QAQC personnel, subcontractors and construction workers, whose responsibilities span material inspections, construction supervision, workmanship assessments and project delivery.
Adding an industry perspective to the celebration, Cream’s Construction Assessment Centre, assessment executive Muhammad Helmyyuzi Mohd Hamid, delivered a keynote address.
His participation provided an opportunity to strengthen awareness of quality management and workmanship standards within Malaysia's construction industry.
MGB Bhd executive director and chief executive officer Datuk Richard Lim said: “As MGB continues to expand its operations, maintaining consistent quality across every project becomes increasingly important.
“Growth must be supported by strong fundamentals, capable people and a culture that takes pride in doing things right.
“World Quality Day reminds us that the quality of our developments reflects the collective dedication of our people, and that continuous improvement must remain part of our long-term journey.”
