ePSS & BAS Compliance

BCA mandates a Biometric Authentication System and monthly Construction Productivity Data for every Singapore project at or above 5,000 m² GFA. Collie turns every clock-in into an ePSS-ready manday, no more retyping site attendance into a spreadsheet.

gavelWhy it matters

Reg 10 doesn’t leave room for guesswork

Under Reg 10 of the Building Control (Buildability and Productivity) Regulations 2011, any project at 5,000 m² GFA or more must install a BAS and submit manpower data monthly, from the first Permit to Work through to TOP or CSC.

One missed month is a flagged record

BCA sends a reminder the moment a month’s submission is missing, then audits builders’ own declarations against BAS data.

Manual re-entry is where mandays go wrong

Copying biometric logs into the ePSS Excel template by hand is exactly where trades get misclassified and hours mistallied.

SGBuildex is raising the bar

From 1 May 2026, new applicable projects move onto automated submission. A BAS that can’t integrate today means a forced upgrade later.

From gate tap to ePSS-ready file

Every clock-in becomes a manday. Every manday rolls up into the exact report structure ePSS expects, onsite and offsite alike.

Where it’s deployed

Wherever BCA’s 5,000 m² threshold applies

From residential projects to civil works across Singapore, Collie’s BAS architecture scales effortlessly.

01

Residential & Mixed Developments

Public and private housing where GFA, once basement carpark and roof area are added into CFA, crosses the threshold.

02

Commercial & Office Towers

New builds and major A&A works at or above 5,000 m² GFA, submitted for planning permission from 1 Nov 2014 onward.

03

Institutional & Healthcare

Hospitals, schools and campuses where several contractors and offsite suppliers need one consolidated manday record.

04

Rail, Road & Tunnel Works

Projects measured by Total Constructed Area rather than Total Floor Area, under the same monthly submission obligation.

Frequently asked questions

Everything Singapore builders, project directors, and site admins need to know about BCA Regulation 10 compliance.

Any project where new GFA, reconstructed floor area, or the GFA increase from building works totals 5,000 m² or more, aside from a short exemption list covering bridges, tunnels, places of worship, power stations and waste treatment plants.

One manday is one worker on site for 8 hours; a 12-hour shift logs as 1.5 mandays, the exact conversion Collie’s BAS applies to every clock-in automatically.

Yes. Our terminals meet BCA’s hardware and software requirements, entrance/exit clearance of 10 workers a minute, tamper-resistant real-time logging, backup power, and output in the Excel format ePSS accepts, so the report is ready to upload, not retyped.

Monthly submission runs from the first Permit to Work up to the month the project obtains full TOP or CSC. Collie’s dashboard flags this milestone automatically.

Yes, as more work shifts to DfMA and prefabrication, BCA requires offsite manday data too. Collie imports your offsite suppliers’ returns into the same monthly file as onsite clock-ins.

Our roadmap follows BCA’s integration path for automated CPD submission, so projects onboarding before the 1 May 2026 mandatory date can start on Collie without a later hardware swap.
