Dubai Municipality has introduced the ‘Build in Dubai’ platform, a comprehensive set of services tailored for the construction sector. This initiative highlights Dubai’s rapid digital transformation across various industries, showcasing the Municipality ‘s commitment to pioneering innovation through advanced smart systems.
The platform caters to property owners, developers, consultants, and contractors. It plays a crucial role in making projects more sustainable and boosting Dubai’s global standing in the construction industry, as one of the most advanced globally.
The municipality is spearheading digital transformation in the construction sector by developing a roadmap for implementing Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the emirate by collaborating with partners and offering requisite building information to offer various smart services and create a ‘digital twin’ of Dubai.
The new platform complies with the requirements of Dubai Digital Authority’s ‘Digital City Experiences’, which offer an inclusive digital experience for property owners throughout the construction journey. It allows access to information on their projects, including land and building details, construction stages, as well as a construction consultant directory, informative contract templates, and a list and ratings of registered consultants and contractors.
The platform also features the latest technological innovations, such as automated auditing of building designs using Building Information Modelling (BIM), of which Dubai is global pioneer with regards to implementation, intelligent inspection, and deployment of artificial intelligence.
The platform, which is being developed in stages, will offer several essential services for property owners, developers, consultants, and contractors through the entire building construction process. These services will encompass all stages, starting from land acquisition, building design, construction permits and execution of the construction work to completion and service connection, occupancy, renting or selling the building, as well as additions, modifications, maintenance or demolition.
Dubai Municipality aims to consolidate all construction-related services on the new platform. It will also include services offered by partners from the government and private sectors, such as the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai, the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), Dubai Civil Defense, Mohammed bin Rashid Housing Establishment, Dubai Land Department, Dubai Customs, Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), Dubai Development Authority, as well as services from telecommunications companies Etisalat and du.
