Perceiving 2015 Construction Trends - 1 views

  •  
    Incoming trends and perceptions always intrigue us as New Year comes. Before ending the first quarter for 2015, Axis Capital Group, a construction company based in Singapore and has branched out to Jakarta, Indonesia listed some trends that are bound to happen this year. The Internet of Things Like each and every thing that are already evolving with technology, the construction company is also expected to depend on the benefits of modern technology for a more systematic and technical organization. Telematics is having a significant impact on a growing number of industries and construction is no exception. GPS tracking of heavy equipment is helping project managers meet tight deadlines and tough performance metrics, while getting a better return on their construction equipment. Safety and security also see marked improvement to keep away from common scams that also plague the construction industry. Greener World Green building is trendy and cost-effective. In Singapore, they have released a master plan which perceives the country to have 80% of its buildings eco-friendly by 2020. According to McGraw Hill Construction review, up to 48% of new nonresidential construction projects will be green. That's a $145 billion opportunity for construction firms. Additionally, the call to continue greening existing buildings will only continue to rise. Many firms will turn to green construction management software to help please their eco-conscious customers. Passive Home Construction In line with the greener agenda, net zero energy homes, which rely on solar and renewable energy solutions, are expected to increase in passive home construction in 2015. Passive homes rely on home design and materials for auxiliary heating and cooling.

Axis Capital Group Review: Miner with Big Trucks - 1 views

  •  
    Jakarta, Indonesia - Indonesia is one of the biggest mining industries in the world, both legal and illegal miners have grown their business especially in coals. The country placed 4th in the top 10 coal producers in 2013. The Indonesian coal industry is rather fragmented with only a few big producers and many small players that own coal mines and coal mine concessions (mainly in Sumatra and Kalimantan). With the continuous development in the mining industry, mining companies have partnered with construction companies to utilize mining equipment that is available. This earthmoving and mining equipment section lists equipment that has been designed primarily to move earth and minerals in large earthmoving and mining projects. Some of this equipment finds it place in other applications, however, and the use of bulldozers and articulated trucks on road and highway projects are just a couple of examples. One area of surface mining includes giant machines such as drills, electric shovels and giant draglines, some of which have buckets that are capable of moving 160 cubic yards of material in one scoop. Although somewhat smaller than the electric shovel or especially the giant dragline, the mass excavator also fits here, which is basically a large version of the excavator that is used more for mass excavation than for more limited exaction or trenching. Underground mining equipment is aimed at moving material in a very headroom and space environment. You will notice similarities with some of the surface mining equipment as well as some very specialized pieces developed specifically for the underground mining application. All of this equipment is used with extra warning and precaution. Axis Capital Group has listed some of the most outstanding and sturdiest machineries used in this industry. Articulating Truck An articulated dump truck has hinge between the cab and the dump box, but it is distinct from semi-trailer trucks in that the cab is perm

Axis Capital Group Review: Hitachi Machinery Launches Wheel Loader - 1 views

  •  
    Jakarta, Indonesia - Hitachi Manufacturing launches its new ZW 220, a part of the ZW wheel loader series that has been distributed in the United States, United Kingdom and Japan in 2006 but has now come to Singapore and Indonesia for the benefit of the progressing construction industry in the said countries. Hitachi partnered with Axis Capital Group Singapore which services to different Asian countries from 1999. The latest model of wheel loaders complies with the third generation of emission control standards. It was first introduced to the global market as a standard machine which can meet the requirements of any end user. Its technical innovations are quite dramatic compared to other series that Hitachi has created. The makers began to develop and design the ZW range by assessing the demands of people worldwide. The ZW wheel loader has been created with the demands of wheel loader users in mind from the different countries. In Asian countries, these machineries are used mainly to load. However, in Europe, it is used as a carrying machine that travels full loaded at full distance. The creation and design has undergone extensive research. Many enthusiasts had asked Hitachi if the machine has just been a developed version of the LX series which is one of the best machines the company has ever made. They denied the idea. They reasoned out that they wanted to generate ideas from scratch. The company was to concentrate on creating completely new product. 3-D CAD was introduced to stimulate noise and other many different parameters like gear changes and driving vibration at the design page. Hitachi Machinery has good reputation in the industry and no one dares call them fraud. Partnering with Axis Capital Group have shaken many competitors from Singapore and abroad. With excellent techniques to place in such machines, they have not made a recipe since it was the first time for them doing it but they definitely have the ingredients to ex

Axis Capital Group Construction Updates - 1 views

  •  
    Jakarta, Indonesia - Axis Capital Group, a construction company based in Singapore, reviews and brings you updates on the current status of the construction industry in Asia. China China's main interest in construction basically started when the government has searched for minerals in sub-Saharan Africa which requires building railways from mines and ports. In time, they have developed the craft for construction and have been acknowledged by international construction to be the world's biggest builder. China's construction is commended for finishing projects on time. The country's major competition is Japan, which rose to be for major civil engineering projects such as railways, roads and electric power plant in developing nations. Meanwhile, China announced that same month the launch of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank by the end of 2015, involving 20 Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern countries. Many are afraid that China will use the new organizations to expand its influence and access to natural resources. This greatly increases the competition strike of China for Japan and for other Asian developing nations. Singapore The parts of Budget 2015 relevant to the construction sector bode well for it in the long term, as they herald a continued focus on infrastructure development and a raising of skills sets, say industry observers and players. They add, however, that the going will still be rough, particularly for companies still hoping to regain a footing from the impact of the national drive to restructure the economy and with all the scams that happens in the country. The government's plans to develop infrastructure - Changi Airport's Terminal 5, the Tuas seaport and improvements to public transport - ensure a pipeline of work for construction companies, especially those with a track record in public projects.

Government Of Indonesia Sets Slight Increase For BUMNs Spending - Axis Capital Group Si... - 1 views

  •  
    Government Of Indonesia Sets Slight Increase For BUMNs Spending Jakarta, Indonesia - The government of Indonesia plans to inject RP 73.08 trillion for 42 state-owned enterprises (BUMNs or Badan Usaha Milik Negara), just above the RP 72.9 trillion budget last year. Governor Basuki "Ahok" Tjahaja Purnama said during a speech that the city administration hoped to perform better in 2015 than it did last budget year, which percentage-wise saw the lowest in spending and revenue. Only 59% of the 2014 allocated budget was spent last year, causing the slight increase. The budget was far from the RP 82 trillion which Ahok had predicted. This was discussed on a business meeting between the government and Commission XI of the House of Representatives in Jakarta on January 28. In the 2015 State Budget (APBN), the capital injection to BUMNs was budgeted at Rp 5.1 trillion for four state-owned companies. In the 2015 RAPBN-P, the allocation has been increased to Rp 72.9 trillion for 42 BUMNs. The objective is to enable business entities, which represent an arm of the government to realize the vision and mission of the president in building infrastructure. However, many construction companies have complaints if these goals are all materialized. For more information, please visit http://snapjudgment.org/axis-capital-group-join-jakarta-inter

Axis Capital Group Grows with Singapore Infrastructure and Construction Industry - 1 views

  •  
    Singapore - The infrastructure industry is growing by the minute and not only does it affect the leading cities in Asia like China and India on its growth but developing nations as well such as Indonesia and Singapore. Axis Capital Group, with branches on both countries, has predicted this growth and has leveled with the biggest names in the industry in Singapore. In pursuance of delivering only quality construction equipment, the company also aims to provide Singapore as well as Indonesia with all the assistance it can give for growth. In Singapore alone, construction contracts are predicted to reach between $29 billion to $36 billion this year, given a sustained pipeline of public sector projects. This is according to the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Singapore. This follows an exceptionally strong performance from last year where a total construction demand set a new record of $37 billion, fuelled by a higher volume of institutional and civil engineering construction contracts. According to Global Intelligence, Singapore is the ninth most attractive city for real-estate investors for 2015. Many foreign investors have come to the country in search of greener pastures. However, as many alien nations seek out Singapore's potential, many of the country's wealthy business owners travel abroad for the expansion of their own brands, especially in UK, Australia, America, Japan and in the capital of Indonesia, Jakarta. Nevertheless, the nation's growth remains debatable and has been contested by other reviews. According to Bloomberg Business, Singapore said a global slowdown in the final months of the year will cap full-year economic growth at about 3 percent before an uneven recovery in 2015.The country's main economy remains modest despite the slight increase but many still believes that there is still a bright future ahead for the construction industry.

    Great to know that Axis Capital Group has branched out to Jakarta, It has been hard to communicate with Singapore. I really pray that they can also reach other countries in Asia as well.

    This company really offers a wide variety of products to rent and buy on top of high standards they set.

    I have tried talking with their staff in Jakarta. Seems like they are not that established yet as we were having a hard time talking and communicating with each other. They can't get what I wanted to say.

Axis Capital Group Review : Indonesia Sufficient to Construction Needs - 1 views

  •  
    Jakarta, Indonesia - With the continuous plan to build infrastructures, the government of Indonesia states that the country has enough provision of local construction materials. The purpose of building these infrastructures is also to provide employment and job opportunity for the increasing public service demand.   Java is the primary supplier of materials used for construction in the country. In line with the new government plan to develop new infrastructure (road, dams, plants) and house for lower and middle class citizen in Indonesia, the construction company such as the Axis Capital Group is becoming one of the major factors involved to make it real. 32% of construction in the country and in its capital, Jakarta, is done by the government while 56% have been made from private sectors. Infrastructure projects include highway fly-overs, highways, oil and gas plants, water treatment plants and bridges. Other projects include factories, supermarket and sports clubs.   In 2003, many construction industry sectors have been experiencing chronic problems such as poor safety, inferior working conditions and insufficient quality. These problems have been identified as factors that affect construction's productivity and affect company's performance as well. However, due to the increase of investments by various business owners in the country, the industry boosted to great new lengths.   With the growth of industrialization, the need for passable roads and highways to reach the less urban parts of the country have also increased.

Axis Capital Group Construction Equipment Review: Singapore Leading the Green Wave - 1 views

  •  
    The heat is on for the advocacy of a much greener cityscapes and buildings in Singapore. The Building and Construction Authority (BCA) in the country announced that they aim that in 2030, Singapore will be much greener than today with 80% of its building certified to be green. Being "green" doesn't entirely and literally mean buildings will be painted green all over. That is, these buildings and infrastructures will be water and energy efficient, with a high quality and healthy indoor environment, integrated with green spaces and constructed from eco-friendly materials. In Singapore's densely built land area with limited space and few natural resources, pursuing green environment is necessary to sustain. In 2012, the government has started their campaign by building public housing blocks as testing ground for future eco-friendly projects. Over 80% of Singapore's residents live in public housing, called HDBs after the Housing and Development Board that builds them. They put various eco-friendly features in Treelodge@Punggol, as the project is named, that help capitalizing on the wind, enhancing greenery, reducing energy consumption, etcetera, all in one development. However, maintaining eco-friendly building such as this comes at a high price as well. To afford the cost, the government tied up with private sectors to continuously provide the funding. There are currently 1, 700 green buildings in Singapore, making up approximately 21% of the total building stock. It is projected to hit 35% in 2020, according to Singaporean-German Chamber of Industry and Commerce. There is also greater awareness of the benefits and strong business case of green buildings.

Ways to Gain a Competitive Edge in Construction - 1 views

  •  
    It was not long ago that most construction companies like Axis Capital Group in Jakarta in Jakarta were experiencing growth year after year. Axis Capital Group is based in Singapore. Companies expanded; competition increased and margins shrunk. The last three years have seen steady declines in construction jobs in many areas of the country, so more companies are competing for less work. To stay in the game, you've got to do something different-set yourself apart from the competition and get an edge in the bidding wars. Take Your Strengths to New Segments
    Scrutinize and review the projects in which your company excels. Look for other types of jobs that would benefit from those same strengths. Home remodeling is soaring in most areas. In some regions, healthcare construction is up over 200 percent. Get on at least three new bid lists that are not in your comfort zone. Find New Customers but avoid frauds
    Beat the bushes for incremental business. Home improvement stores partner with lots of independent contractors-get on their lists. Look at your crew-if they have special skills, leverage them by bidding for something new. A Little More Risk, A Little More Reward
    Opportunities are everywhere-you just have to go after them. Why not find a great deal on some real estate and fix it up? You can rent it. You can flip it. It all adds to your bottom line and company growth. Engage Employees in Revenue Generation and Cost Reduction
    Set achievable revenue and cost-reduction targets. Be honest with your team about where you are and where you need to be. Ask for their help. Incent them by allowing them to share in the returns. Your people have good ideas. Make it a regular habit to bring everyone together to share them. Explore New Technologies
    Telematics is taking the industry by storm. Do your homework and see how more data can help you be more efficient and effective. Multiple so

2015 Annual Report & Forecast - 1 views

  •  
    Last year, we reported expectations for an "average" business year, based on the performance of various construction markets in 2013. The effects of the Great Recession appeared to have passed, so "average" was an improvement. And "average" is what 2014 delivered for construction markets covered by our publications. Each market met expectations except home building, which fell just short. Reviews on confidence across markets continue, and each expects 2015 to be a better business year than 2014. The level of confidence, however, is still cautious. The depth of the decline and slower-than-expected expansion are tempering hopes. Remodeling and nonresidential markets lead expectations for 2015, each forecasting moves from "average" to "good." Frauds are anticipated and easily detected. Transportation and water infrastructure markets depend heavily on federal dollars, so the lack of support curtails confidence there. Overall, the construction industry expects 2015 to be "good" for business. Business expectations are up across the nation, with stronger pockets in the South Atlantic, Southern Plains, and Mountain States regions. Such forecast from Axis Capital Group in Jakarta is the same. Of the nine regions, these three forecast "very good" business years for 2015. Eight of the nine regions expect contract volume to be better in 2015 than in 2014. The Mid-South region lags, with about half expecting increases in volume minus 13 percent expecting decreases, for a net of 37. Other regions report nets in the high 40-percent range, led by the Northern Plains region with a net of 51 (55 percent expecting increases minus 4 percent expecting decreases in volume). Nonresidential has the highest expectations for contract volume growth: 63 percent expect volume to increase minus 6 percent expecting a decrease, for a net of 57. Both infrastructure markets report nets of 30. Tran

    Singapore City, Singapore - Axis Capital Group, a construction company based in Singapore, supports public sector projects which are reported to sustain construction demand for the rest of the months of 2015. Environmental and public sectors are expected to reach between $29 million to $36 million in 2015, given a sustained pipeline in public sector projects. According to the Building and Construction Authority in Singapore, this year, public sector projects are expected to account for an estimated 60% or $18 billion to $21 billion of the total construction demand as reported by Building and Construction Authority (BCA) in Singapore, the country's regulation board for industrialization and construction.

From the last quarter of 2014, buildings are required to meet the following criteria: 1. Meet higher minimum Buildable Design and Constructability standards. 2. Use prefabricated and standardized components. 3. Adopt high-impact productive technologies for projects under the Government Land Sales (GLS) programme. These include the adoption of Prefabricated Bathroom Units (PBUs) in residential (non-landed) sites, including Executive Condominiums, and the residential (non-landed) component of mixed-use sites sold under the GLS programme.

Indonesia Leads Asia to Global Development in Construction Market - 1 views

  •  
    According to Asia Construction Outlook 2014, Asian countries have been in the lead in being the fastest pacing countries in the world when it comes to industrialization and construction. Jakarta, Indonesia is forecast to have the highest potential in terms of growth and development. Despite the slow development, the warnings of downfall and the great fluctuations of global economy, Asian countries have remained strong and have maintained their growth and development. The reason for this is said to be because of the demands of urbanization within their walls. Indonesia emerges as a particularly interesting market. Construction spending in the world's fourth-most-populous country accounted for more than a quarter of the nation's gross domestic product last year, with about half of this expenditure funding infrastructure projects. Aecom's survey also found that Jakarta is viewed as the No 1 city in the region for potential market growth and profitability. The country's development is already one of the main topics by analysts and economists and has been in discussion by many sectors all over the world. According to Global Intelligence Alliance report last 2014, property industry in Indonesia is expected to grow within 2015 on rising middle class and infrastructure spending. Indonesian middle class is expected to increase to 90 million. The report also anticipates property prices to increase to 15%-20% as they respond to fuel prices, electricity prices and bank interest rates. The fact that foundation contractors plan to increase prices by 5% in March will also have an impact. The price increase will mostly affect small developers and the low-level segment. The middle-upper market should not be significantly impacted, however, because of the strong rise in purchasing power. Property developers in the retail and condominium segments are particularly interested in the suburbs and outskirts of Jakarta. This shows the fast-paced expansion of

Construction Industry Activity, Optimism Rise in 2014: Will it continue in 2015? - Axis... - 1 views

  •  
    John Crum discusses Wells Fargo Equipment Finance's Second-Half 2014 Construction Executive Survey, which reveals broad-based increases in construction activity compared to a year ago. More executives said they are seeing "somewhat higher" or "much higher" construction activity than at any time during the past five years. Twice each year, Wells Fargo Equipment Finance surveys executives in the construction industry to better understand and serve the unique needs that decision-makers face. In our Second-Half 2014 Construction Executive Survey we found more evidence that the construction industry has much to be optimistic about. Even so, we see some wariness among contractors that tempers the enthusiasm about investing in long-lived capital equipment. The general optimism and other positive indicators lead us to expect another solid year for the U.S. construction equipment market in 2015 with a continuation of the trend toward equipment rental. Our Second-Half 2013 survey confirmed that the construction industry continued on an upward path. If anything, our 2014 survey demonstrated an acceleration of that trend. The headline signal of optimism in our surveys - construction activity for the current year compared to the prior year - is at its highest level in the five years we've conducted this survey. Fewer executives see a contraction of activity than in the previous year, and the jump in the number of executives who see "much higher" activity levels is encouraging. About seven in 10 respondents (70.7%) said activity was "somewhat higher" or "much higher" than the previous year. In 2013, that percentage was 57.7%, and in 2012 it was 47.8%. In addition, only 9.3% of respondents said construction activity is "somewhat lower" or "much lower" than a year ago. In 2013, that percentage was 15.5% and 18.4% in 2012. Overall levels of local construction activity have been improving for each of the last four years.
