Strategic Plan, OACP And IM-Strategic Steer JKR Towards Becoming An Innovative Organisation
KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 4 (Bernama) -- The Public Works Department (JKR) Malaysia’s Strategic Plan 2026-2030, Organisational Anti-Corruption Plan (OACP) 2026-2030, and IM-Strategic System are expected to further strengthen the department’s effectiveness and efficiency over the next five years, said Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi.
He said the two guideline documents and the system reflect JKR’s commitment to continuous improvement in governance, organisational efficiency and staff integrity, in line with the aspirations of the Works Ministry and the government.
He said the plan, which is renewed every five years, is not merely a strategic document but a key roadmap to strengthen the department’s direction, ensuring it remains relevant and competitive in meeting the evolving challenges of the national construction industry.
“The plan outlines clear strategies to further enhance JKR’s effectiveness, with a strong emphasis on efficiency, integrity and the department’s strategic direction for the next five years,” he told reporters after launching the plan at Dewan Tan Sri Mahfoz Khalid, Kompleks Kerja Raya, here today.
Also present were Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Maslan, Works Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Azman Ibrahim and Works Department director-general Datuk Seri Roslan Ismail.
Meanwhile, in his speech, Roslan said the strategic plan is built around five key themes: Comprehensive Asset Management Excellence, Realising Customer Aspirations, Centre of Technical Excellence, Driving Sustainability, and an Innovative Organisation.
He said the plan’s key focus areas include expanding the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM), aiming for a 90 per cent adoption rate by 2026 for all projects valued at RM10 million and above, as well as enhancing the implementation of Pre-Approved Plans (PAP) for conventional building projects, with an annual target of 50 per cent.
Roslan said JKR will continue to promote the use of renewable energy in road and building projects to reduce carbon emissions, while strengthening the department’s internal innovation efforts to facilitate the commercialisation of new technologies.
In terms of digital transformation, he said JKR has unveiled the Integrated Management Strategic (IM-Strategic) system, an online platform for monitoring performance and evaluating the effectiveness of the department’s strategic plan implementation.
“This digital transformation not only enhances productivity, but also reduces the risk of errors and ensures greater transparency in reporting,” he said.
Roslan said the JKR Malaysia OACP 2026-2030 builds on the previous plan, focusing on four key areas: asset and project management, human resources, procurement, and administration and governance, with 10 strategic objectives and 42 initiatives.
“I would also like to emphasise that the success of the OACP and the effectiveness of the Anti-Corruption Management System (SPAR) depend not merely on the documents, but on the commitment of every JKR staff member. The principle of ‘JKR zero tolerance for corruption’ should be ingrained as part of the work culture, with no compromise on misconduct or abuse of power,” he said.
