To achieve this result, the Huu Nghi - Chi Lang Expressway project design by Dai Phong Construction Design Consulting Joint Stock Company has excellently surpassed 150 other entries from prestigious units in 6 countries: Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines...

The BIM application contest in the design of the Huu Nghi - Chi Lang Expressway project was conducted by Dai Phong Construction Design Consulting Joint Stock Company as a consulting unit participating in the project proposal preparation.

This is a highway project with a total length of 60km located in Lang Son province, connecting Huu Nghi border gate with the North-South expressway.

The project is invested under the PPP method with a total investment of more than 11,000 billion VND, implemented by a consortium of investors: Deo Ca Construction Joint Stock Company - Deo Ca Group Joint Stock Company - Construction Joint Stock Company 568 - Lizen Joint Stock Company.

To ensure the quality and efficiency of project construction, the leading investor consortium, Deo Ca Group, has proactively invested funds to pioneer the application of digital technology in project design, construction and management.

At the project, the design consultant applied digital technology, focusing on applying BIM in the technical design and construction step to help control local site clearance, manage contractor progress and construction quality, and optimize design and project implementation costs.

In particular, this "digitalization" also helps project enterprises plan with the general contractor and evaluate the responsibilities of consulting units, preventing risks during the project settlement process.

Mr. Mai Manh Hong, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Dai Phong Construction Design Consulting Joint Stock Company, said that the application of digital technology and integration of advanced technologies has been focused on by Deo Ca Group in the projects they have implemented for more than 5 years, aiming at managing large-scale transport infrastructure projects.
