NILAI, Malaysia — Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) with IME Technology Sdn. Bhd. on Aug. 11, 2026, to advance strategic industry collaboration in architectural digitalization and Building Information Modelling (BIM). The partnership involves USIM’s Sustainable Environment Technology (SET) research group under the Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment (FKAB), led by Assoc. Prof. Ar. IDr. Dr. Elina Mohd Husini, alongside IME Technology, led by Teoh Jia Yuan.

Market Impact

The agreement builds on prior cooperation between both entities involving BIM and international industry certifications, targeting the increasing demand for digital competency across Malaysia's construction and architectural sectors. Under the initiative, specialized BIM training programs will be offered to USIM students and lecturers, with potential expansion to private and public sector stakeholders, as well as government agencies.

IME Technology was chosen as a strategic partner based on its specialization in digital design solutions, 3-dimensional (3D) scanning technology, CAD, CAE, and Archicad software, alongside its role as a primary authorized distributor for Graphisoft. Implementation of the BIM programs will be coordinated by a team of USIM architecture lecturers, including Ar. Fadli, Ar. Ahmadsyafiie, Ar. Azrul, Ar. Nasrudin, and Dr. Madihah, ensuring academic competency remains aligned with current technology trends.

The collaboration is projected to strengthen USIM's role as a strategic partner for digital skills development, facilitating technology transfer and professional network expansion. According to Elina, the initiative aims to enhance USIM’s expertise and visibility in digital technology while supporting its broader aspirations to develop into a regional hub in the field.
