IntoAEC is now a member of the Master Builders Association Malaysia (MBAM), the national association representing builders and contractors across the country. The membership follows our time at MBAM OneBuild 2026 at KLCC in August, and it marks a longer-term commitment to Malaysia’s construction community.
MBAM, known in Malay as Persatuan Kontraktor Binaan Malaysia, has represented the industry since 1954. Its network covers more than 18,000 direct and indirect members, from contractors and builders to affiliated associations and industry companies.
Why IntoAEC Joined MBAM
Malaysian contractors are among the most active teams using IntoAEC. Joining MBAM puts us inside the association that represents them, so we hear about the problems they face directly instead of second hand.
The timing also matters. Malaysia’s construction industry is moving steadily towards digital project delivery. CIDB and MBAM have launched a Construction Digital Maturity Index to benchmark how far contractors have come with digital tools, and MBAM has worked with software providers to help members start their digital journey, including programmes on e-Invoicing. Closing that gap is exactly what IntoAEC was built for.
What the Membership Means for Malaysian Contractors
On many Malaysian projects, jobs are still priced in Excel, variations are approved over WhatsApp, and the same figures are typed in again for procurement, progress claims and invoices. Every one of those handovers is a place where margin quietly disappears.
IntoAEC connects those steps in one platform, so a figure entered once carries through to every stage after it:
- BQ and estimating: build bills of quantities and AI-assisted estimates without copying rates between spreadsheets.
- Procurement: run RFQs, purchase orders and goods receipts against the original budget, so overspend shows up early.
- Progress claims and invoicing: raise claims and invoices from live project data, with guidance on LHDN e-Invoice for construction.
- Accounting: keep your books in sync through our Bukku integration.
Zyra AI, our built-in assistant, works across all of these modules. You ask it questions in plain language, much like ChatGPT, and it answers from your own project data.
Looking Ahead
We’ll share what this membership brings for MBAM members here in our Updates section and on our Malaysia page. If you’re an MBAM member and want to see how IntoAEC fits your projects, book a demo and mention your membership when you register.
