BBR Holdings (S), the specialist engineering group, has secured a $42 million contract from Yang Kee Holdings to construct Phase 1 of the Yang Kee Logistics Chemical Hub at Jurong Pier.

The design-and-build contract was clinched through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Singa Development. Work on the five-storey warehouse building with drive-up ramps serving each floor has already begun and is scheduled to be completed in early 2011.

The scope of works consists of foundation works, mechanical & engineering services, steel structural roof system, an electrical substation and ancillary external works.

This latest win will boost the group’s order book, which as at Sept 30 2009, stood at $381 million with projects lasting up to 2012. These comprise mainly civil engineering and building contracts predominantly in Singapore and Malaysia.
