Strategic sourcing is on plan, but supplier concentration on our primary rebar mill is the silent number to watch.
We secured RM 6.8M in negotiated savings YTD across steel, cement and MEP sub-packages, ahead of plan. 58% of rebar volume now sits with a single Klang Valley mill, and AI credit feeds are flagging mild stress signals on a Tier-2 MEP sub-contractor in Johor.
Qualifying a second steel mill in Penang and rotating 25% of rebar volume should take 60 days and meaningfully reduces single-vendor exposure before the next round of fixed-price package awards.
