Over the years, SCAL has built an extensive network of entrepreneurs, industry leaders and related business partners to better serve the entrepreneur community over the long term. SCAL has established four (4) subsidiaries to better serve the building community. Introduction: · Contract management includes activities to meet the requirements of a contract, from the award of the contract to the completion of the work and including the subsequent performance of the contract. · Good contract management by contractors ensures that their rights and obligations are properly documented and recorded and that they are operational as needed. ·. What began in 1937 in a modest shop in Chinatown is now the voice of Singapore`s construction industry.
Singapore Contractors Association Limited (SCAL), formerly known as the Singapore Chinese Contractors Association, was founded in 1937 with the aim of establishing harmonious business relationships between local contractors and ensuring a steady supply of building materials and liaising with the British Master Builders Association. After World War 2, the association changed its name to the Singapore Contractors Association to reflect Singapore`s multiracial community and the growing number of multi-ethnic members of the association. Major General Lim Bo Seng, a successful brick maker and entrepreneur, brought all the members together into a unified body to protect their common interests. In 1977, the Singapore Building Contractors Society merged with the Singapore Contractors Association and the Singapore Contractors Association Ltd (SCAL) was born. This merger brought together all of Singapore`s entrepreneurs to give the industry a strong voice and recognition. Thanks to the rapid growth of its business, SCAL moved to its own premises, Construction House, in 1984. As the only national voice in the country to represent contractors for bungalows, terraces, semi-detached houses and micro-construction projects, the association wants to advance the industry.
