1 The total supply of 4,090 residential units will bring the total pipeline supply of private housing (including ECs) to about 61,000 units, comprising 51,700 units with planning approval and 9,300 units from GLS sites and awarded en-bloc sites that have not been granted planning approval yet.
2 Tenderers have the option to submit an alternative bid on top of a base Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC) bid. The alternative bid may be of a non-PPVC technology or a hybrid of technologies which could yield the specified productivity improvement. PPVC bids will automatically qualify for the tender evaluation, while any alternative bid will need to be accompanied by a write-up to demonstrate the feasibility of proposal.
