Oct 19, 2026

Hanoi, Hanoi, Vietnam, October 19, 2026 /MarketersMEDIA/ -- Glodon met with Vietnam's Ministry of Construction on 9 October 2026 at a high-level working session chaired by Deputy Minister Bui Xuan Dung. Held at the Ministry's headquarters in Hanoi, the meeting focused on the application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in construction investment cost management, exploring opportunities to advance digital transformation and industry collaboration.
Coordinated by the Institute of Construction Economics (ICE), the meeting brought together representatives from key departments of Vietnam's Ministry of Construction, railway authorities, and major project management boards. Glodon's delegation was led by Vice Chairman Liu Qian and Vice President Wataru Matsumoto. The discussions centered on how international experience and digital technologies could support greater efficiency, transparency, and cost certainty in Vietnam's construction sector.
Sharing Digital Construction Experience and Expertise
As Vietnam advances large-scale infrastructure development, the growing scale and complexity of construction projects are driving greater demand for digital transformation and more effective cost management.
Against this backdrop, Deputy Minister Bui Xuan Dung emphasized that BIM should go beyond 3D visualization to play a more practical role in construction cost management. He noted that Vietnam's regulatory framework already mandates BIM application in certain construction works, while also highlighting its application at various stages, including design, consultancy, and cost management. He also underscored BIM’s value in enabling accurate quantity takeoff, strengthening investment cost control, and reducing the risks of cost overruns and waste in major infrastructure projects.
Drawing on its experience in China and international markets, Glodon highlighted its broader approach to BIM-enabled integration across the project lifecycle, with a particular focus on connecting design information with quantity takeoff and cost estimation.
Glodon also shared how connected data, 5D BIM, and AI-powered solutions can improve the efficiency and accuracy of quantity takeoff and cost estimation, support more informed decision-making, and strengthen cost management throughout the project lifecycle.
Exploring Opportunities for Long-Term Collaboration
At the conclusion of the meeting, Deputy Minister Bui Xuan Dung commended Glodon's technological expertise and expressed support for further collaboration, emphasizing the importance of delivering tangible results.
As a next step, Glodon and ICE will further explore cooperation in three key areas: piloting digital solutions on real-world construction projects to evaluate their effectiveness in cost estimation; developing a standardized BIM training center to support professional training and certification for quantity surveyors and project managers; and conducting joint research into the application of digital technologies and AI in quantity takeoff and cost estimation.
The discussions laid the groundwork for closer collaboration between Glodon and Vietnam's construction authorities. Through digital innovation, knowledge sharing, and professional capability development, Glodon aims to contribute to more efficient, transparent, and data-driven construction cost management in Vietnam.
