Message from Chairman

(G4-1)

The year 2017 was the “Year of Shift” of the organization. It was the major change in vision, policy and operation as a result of the economic slowdown in the previous year which entailed household debt problem and stringent loan approval criteria of financial institutions. The business operation of the Company was categorized into two business groups, namely, real estate development business and service business in relation to real estate. As a consequence of the above adjustment, the real estate development business started to be on track to recovery. At the same time, the service business related to real estate development of the Company gained interest and confidence from many real estate developers, particularly on community management, community services and comprehensive real estate development consultation service. The Company started providing such services to many other organizations. While economic strategies were revised and adjusted, the Company also strengthened the environmental and social operations by improving the Green Design Concept and Green Construction Process, both of which were LPN’s unique standards developed from international standard such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and Thai Green Building Standard. At the same time, Green Standard Checklist, which was formerly applied in two processes in 6 GREEN LPN Strategy, was revised to cover all the processes so that the environmental operation was supportive of and corresponded to the strategy and policy of the organization to create sustainable balance for all stakeholders in a concrete manner. The implementation will start in 2018. In addition, the Company started seeking ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System Standard) certification as well as ISO 9001 (Quality Management System Standard) certification in 2017 in order to ensure the stakeholders that the environmental and social operation of the Company was in accordance with the international standard. It was also to build confidence in the Company’s commitment to reduce environmental impacts and offer high-quality services as a responsible corporate citizen of the society. It emphasized that the Company has been operating our business in line with the Sustainable Development Goals 2030. It was expected that the Company would be certified within 2018. Amidst fierce business competition, I am well aware that being accepted by the society and customers is the crucial factor that will make LPN stand tall and continue doing good for our society. The fact that the Company hands over high-quality residences and services to the customers, operates our business in a prudent and honest manner, promotes corporate governance and takes the impacts of the operation on stakeholders into account reflects our intention to become a responsible corporate citizen. I would like to thank the executives, staff, LPN Team, Lumpini Team and all those involved for promoting the intention to adopt sustainability practices in the organization so as to create a balance between business growth and social and environmental responsibility as well as for being committed to achieve growth for all stakeholders.

The operation of the Company as a real estate developer has impacts on the society and environment on various aspects. The Company, therefore, focuses on reducing the impacts of the development of the project during the development process (in process) in terms of the project design and construction and takes care of the environment and quality of life of the residents and neighboring communities after the handover of the project.

10P

10 PROCESSES (G4-12)

1 The Company does not only aspire to be a “Value Organization” that gives importance on organizational management and human capital but also to take responsibility towards all stakeholders in all operational processes. Usually, the responsibility of a real estate developer comes to an end after the product or condominium units are handed over to customers. However, the Company realizes how significant it is to ensure that the quality of life of the residents of the projects developed by the Company is enhanced and taken care of as they have trust in Lumpini brand and decide to make our condominium unit their “home”. This is the beginning of the development of “Livable Community” concept which is an after-sale service offered both in terms of building management and community management. The concept has been implemented for more than 30 years. The responsibility towards all stakeholders of the Company has started from the policy level within the organization through to the ten core processes of the property development of the Company as follows:

22

Project Location

2

Land Purchase

The development concept is designed to be appropriate with the project location. The two concepts for project development are pilot project i.e. project development in new locations with minimum competition (Blue Ocean Strategy) and expanded project i.e. project development in highly successful locations where demands for residential property are high.

The decision made by the Management to buy a piece of land is based on the vision as well as information from the Research and Development Department and Marketing Department. The demand, supply and feasibility for project development are carefully studied beforehand in order to ensure that the project development is in accordance with the strategy of the organization and customers’ needs.

6

7

Customers’ Experience Management

The trust in brand is key to the management of customers’ experiences. Every touch point is operated with high standard. Various communication channels are available for customers to send feedback to the Company for improvement of services.

Construction Management

Project construction is the process that impacts the environment and society the most. The business operators should take responsibility in minimizing such impacts. The Company has initiated Q-C-S-E-S+P project management strategy as an operational standard for all those involved in the project construction process.


3

Design Concept

4

Financial Management

5

Sale & Marketing Management

Projects are designed in accordance with LPN Green Standard Checklist which is developed by the Company and is consistent with Green Building Standard of the U.S.’s LEED Program (The Leadership in Energy and Environment Design). The impacts on stakeholders are considered in a well-rounded fashion.

The business growth and returns for stakeholders are identified in line with the annual business plan. The construction costs and profit of each individual project is appropriately prepared. The financial statements are accurate and reliable and are prepared in a transparent and auditable manner without any hidden agendas. In addition, financial risks have always been managed.

The marketing activity of the Company is “Customer Centric” or directly focuses on the needs of the customers. The policy of the Company is to build the first home for those who do not yet own a house. It is to give something back to the society. Furthermore, the Company respects the rights of customers and keeps our promise.

10

Handover Management

The quality of condominium units and common area is ensured before the condominium units are handed over to customers in order to create a safe and fully-equipped “Livable Community.” Ownership transfer services are also provided to customers for their convenience.

Moving Preparation

It is important that the residents fully understand the rules and regulations of the condominium. Prior to moving in, the community management policy and direction of the Company is communicated to the residents in order to enhance peaceful co-existence in the community.

Community Management

“Livable Community Strategy” is one of the core strategies of the organization. The Company does not only manage the building but also the quality of life, society and environment and promote “togetherness, care and share” culture.

23

A number of sustainability topics have been identified in the Sustainability Report 2017, all of which are relevant to real estate development and construction industry and substantively influence the expectation, assessment and decision of stakeholders on the organization’s responsible operation. Sustainability aspects will be assessed following the GRI Sustainability Reporting Guidelines.

After defining the topics relevant to the operation on sustainability of the Company, the working group prioritized the topics based on the influence on stakeholders’ assessments and decisions as well as the significance of economic, environmental and social impacts in order to determine the “materiality” of the report.

The working group proposed the sustainability topics to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the highest-ranking executive of the organization, for endorsement so as to ensure that such topics are inclusive of possible impacts of the Company’s operation and are of importance to each group of stakeholders. The topics will be used as a guideline for the planning of sustainable operation and preparation of the Sustainability Report. The materiality of the report is identified and shown in the diagram on prioritizing materiality aspects.

The Company made use of the feedback of the stakeholders on the Sustainability Report 2016 to develop the Sustainability Report 2017. The contents are reviewed whether they are relevant to the sustainability topic of the organization so that the operation of the Company achieves sustainable development goals that are most relevant and significant to the organization. In addition, the feedback is used to determine the direction of socially responsible operation of the organization in the next phase. In 2017, stakeholders are able to send their feedback and suggestions on sustainable and responsible operation through a number of channels provided by the Company as well as the attached questionnaire.

Supply Chain Management Getting through the economic crisis in 1997 does not only help develop the identity and values of the organization but such difficult experiences have also urged the Company to give importance to sustainable growth in parallel with risk management, both of which are key to the operation of all departments. The supply chain of the Company has also been strengthened. As a result of the collaboration during tough times, the “trade partners” of the Company have become our “business alliances” who support the operation of each other and trust each other. The relationship has been developed further and they have finally become “LPN Team” and share common development goal with the Company. From more than 20 years of collaboration, the operation of the Company and “LPN Team” has been merged into one. All the operational processes are performed to achieve the ultimate goal of supply chain management of the organization which is to achieve mutual development and growth.

The supply chain management process of the Company is as follows:

1. Identify annual operational goal. After the business plan is finalized, the meeting among high-ranking executives of more than 30 companies in the LPN Team will be organized for them to discuss the work plan and collaboration in order to achieve the expected outcomes of that year. 2. Identify any challenges of working together and develop a risk management plan. 3. Encourage participation of each party in the development of each project. 4 Operate in accordance with the established work plan. 5. Organize a monthly meeting to follow-up the work, assess the performance and analyze problems to improve or adjust the operational plan as appropriate. This will help increase the efficiency of the operation in the supply chain.

Furthermore, the Company and LPN Team will communicate with each other in a two-way manner via WhatsApp so that all participated parties are able to share ideas and learning to generate utmost operational efficiency.

STRATEGY OPERATION


The development and training of LPN Team Knowledge sharings and transfer both in terms of the operation and organization management is another method used to facilitate mutual and sustainable growth of the Company and LPN Team. Trainings, seminars and study tour are thus organized by L.P.N. Academy to build capacity and knowledge of LPN Team. In addition, LPN Team is encouraged to come up with new innovations to enhance the implementation of Q-C-S-E-S+P strategy.

Supply chain risk management When establishing the operational target, risks must be taken into consideration and discussed with LPN Team as some companies may not have the capacity to achieve the operational target. The communication between LPN Team and the Company and among members of LPN Team themselves is also crucial. It ensures that the business is operated in the same direction and that the supply chain is efficient. Moreover, the society nowadays has become more aware of environmental impacts from the project development. The reputation of the Company could be destroyed as a result of the operation of LPN Team. Therefore, the Company, as a client, has cascaded the concept of environmental and social responsibility to LPN Team to raise awareness and encourage their participation in environmentally and socially responsible operation. The operational standard of both project design and project management is established, implemented and closely monitored.

In terms of financial management for sustainability, the Company has ensured that the financial management is transparent and auditable. The reporting and disclosure of the financial statement to the public are done on a regular basis as a listed company in the Stock Exchange of Thailand. In addition to the above, the financial management framework that emphasizes the importance of financial discipline is established. There are indicators to signify the status and follow up the operation of the Company. They are also the tools to ensure that the business operation is appropriately conducted, financial risks are managed for continuous and steady growth and profits are generated from effective operational system. The key indicators are as follows:

Indicators 1. Debt to Equity Ratio

2. Gross Profit Margin Gross profit margin is the proportion of gross profit and net sales volume of a company which indicates the efficiency of the business operation in terms of profit generation and cost management. A business with satisfactory gross profit margin implies the ability to achieve the highest sales volume comparing with the sales cost. However, the gross profit margin should not be too high as it may show that the customers, employees, trade partners and other stakeholders are being taken advantage of and that the company is not being environmentally and socially responsible which is against the policy of the Company. The Company has identified the gross profit margin target that is appropriate with the operation. It is also compared with that of the competitors in the market to indicate the efficiency of the business operation of the Company.

The debt to equity ratio or debt ratio is calculated by dividing a company’s total liabilities by shareholders’ equity or registered capital.The ratio indicates what proportion of equity and debt the company is using to finance its assets. Higher debt ratio translates into higher risks of the company being unable to pay debts as they fall due either in time of profit or loss. On the other hand, a lower debt ratio usually implies the extent to which shareholders’ equity can fulfill the company’s obligations to creditors which will positively enhance growth and competitiveness in the market.

3. Dividend per Net Profit Ratio

The debt to equity ratio of the Company is identified at 1:1 which is the ceiling of the management of growth and operation of the Company. Growth can only be achieved when a company is able to pay back both the interest and principal of a loan even in unfavorable circumstances. Adhering to such policy and practice, the growth of the Company may not be noticeable and yet the stakeholders can be assured of the sustainability and stability of the

The earning per share is the portion of a company’s net profit from the operational performance each year to be allocated to shareholders as dividends. It indicates the profit from the investment of the company. The Company will present the information on the earning per share to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to seek approval for dividend payment. This is the true indicator of the operational efficiency of the Company.

GREEN DESIGN CONCEPT The Product Design that is Environmentally Responsible

GREEN DESIGN CONCEPT

GREEN Design concept is the environmentally responsible design of products. The Company gives importance to the design and development of project from the process of designing the product and the layout of the project in order to minimize environmental impact. The concept is in accordance with the Green Building Standard of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), U.S.A. The components of the Green Design Concept are as follows: 1. Strategic Location 2. LPN Green Project - LEED 3. Blue Ocean Strategy

1. Strategic Location It is to select strategic locations where there is minimum competition but have development potential. The location must be close to convenient facilities, public transportation system and express ways to reduce environmental impacts from large-scale project development as well as energy usage in transport.

2. LPN Green Project - LEED (G4-EN27) It is to design the product and project plan under “LPN Green Project” concept that has been promoted to the public and received positive feedback in terms of sales volume. However, even though “LPN Green Project” is the concept that is derived from the Green Building Standard of the U.S.A (LEED - The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), the Company has adjusted some of the criterion to be suitable with the business operation and climate and environment in Thailand. The project is developed with the following concepts:

52

DESIGN

STRATEGY OPERATION


Sustainable Site Development

The environmental impacts from project development are minimized by selecting the project locations which are highly populated on a main road and near convenient facilities. It must also be close to public transportation system and express ways which will directly help ease the traffic and reduce energy usage. The residents are encouraged to use public transportation system by arranging a shuttle bus to connect with the main transportation system. The previous open space is compensated with green area and landscapes in the project.

Water Efficiency (G4-EN10)

The Company opts for water-conserving sanitary ware for efficient use of water such as dual flush toilet system which can reduce the use of water by as much as 50%. The residents are encouraged to take a shower instead of a bath to directly reduce the use of water. Treated waste water is used to water the plants in the project to increase the efficient use of water as well as to reduce waste water being released into the public drainage system. The efficient plant watering system such as drip irrigation system is installed in the project.

Indoor Environment Quality

It is focused on the efficiency of sustainable community management under “F-B-L-E-S+P� strategy i.e. the management of infrastructure and convenient facilities in the project, the management of budget, the promotion of discipline and culture of living together, the conservation of environment in the community and appropriate use of energy, the management of the security system and other regulations and the development of the capacity of staff involved in community management.

Energy Efficiency (G4-EN7)

The condominium unit is designed to have an awning and a porch to reduce the heat from sunlight that directly enters the units. The lighting and air conditioning system are to be efficient and suitable to reduce electricity use. Renewable energy such as solar power is used for garden lighting. The Community Management Department is responsible for managing energy usage in the condominium to be as efficient as possible while also being safe at the same time.

53


Innovation in Design (G4-EN7)

It is to plan the layout of the building and project to be in accordance with the environment by allowing natural light and wind into the project. The layout and design of the condominium unit is planned to include open space which is appropriate for living. The construction period is shortened through the use of semi prefabrication system.

Material and Resources (G4-EN1)

The Company uses alternative materials that are proved to be safe and environmental friendly to replace natural materials to reduce the impact on the environment such as using laminate floor instead of real wood parquet floor. The dimensions of the buildings are designed to be consistent with the dimensions of construction materials to maximize the economic value and reduce waste of materials that would have to be discarded back to the environment. Figured glass is used instead of opaque walls as walls within the units to obtain natural sunlight while preserving the privacy of the residents. The Company also uses insulated glass for outside windows on the west side to minimize heat from the afternoon sun when the temperature reaches its peak during the day. Green Walls are installed in the parking lot to reduce carbon dioxide and prevent heat from spreading into the residence and surrounding areas. Waste management is done by segregating waste and disposing waste appropriately both during the construction and after the residents have moved in.

54

DESIGN

STRATEGY OPERATION


3. Blue Ocean Strategy It is to avoid developing a project in a highly competitive area with expensive land prices to reduce costs and be able to develop projects that respond to the needs of the customers in the middle to lower-middle income group. The Company enhances the value of the project by arranging a shuttle bus to connect to the main public transportation system, providing full convenient facilities in the project e.g. convenient stores, laundry service and restaurants. The common area is designed to be suitable with the lifestyle of the residents to promote the use of common area and build a great community.

GREEN DESIGN CONCEPT

OPERATION

Achieving Green Design Concept Standard in 2017 The Company stresses the significance of project design development. The design and layout of the project are carefully planned to minimize environmental impacts, enhance the quality of life of residents as well as conserve energy. It is developed from sustainable architectural design concept which focuses on sustainable use of resources and minimum environmental impacts. It also aims to create a great living environment for all residents in order to build “Livable Community�. The above concept paves the way to the development of Green Design Concept Standard. In 2017, the Company has strengthened the standard as the technology and capacity of design team develop in order to respond to severe environmental problems as well as to upgrade the standard of environmentally responsible product design. It is expected that no less than 80% of condominiums developed by the Company will be built according to Green Design Concept Standard.

3. Place Strategy

The location of the sales office must be on or near project development site so that it would be accessible to the customers. All the details must clearly be stated and easy to understand without any hidden agendas. Show units of some projects developed outside Bangkok may be situated in the inner city area in order to be more accessible for interested customers.

4. Promotion Strategy

Marketing and promotion are done in a transparent manner and must take the Company and customers’ benefit into account. The sales terms and conditions must take into consideration the financial capacity of customers. The advertisement should be creative, clear and fair without a hidden agenda. The Company treats business competitors fairly and does not harm the competitors’ ability to compete in the market.

5. People Strategy

The Company gives a great deal of importance to customers’ satisfaction. The standard of touch points e.g. sales officer, maid and security officer has been established and trainings which are in accordance with LPN Service Culture (S-E-R-V-I-C-E-S) are provided on a regular basis to bring about positive customer experiences and build up sales volume from referral. The net promoter score measuring customer loyalty is the guarantee for after-sale services. There are also various channels for submission of complaints and suggestions for service improvement.

6. Process Strategy

All processes must provide convenience for customers. The reservation making and contract signing processes must be simple and speedy. Various payment channels and methods must be in place. The deposit forfeit and return must be considered carefully and take into account the concerns of customers. Also, the Company makes an attempt to minimize complaints arising from high expectations of customers by highlighting important issues in the reservation agreement and communicating with customers for mutual understanding.

1

Hour

Respond within an hour of receiving the complaint.

3

Use repeated complaints Q & A as case studies and prepare Q&A in advance.

Manage complaints according to the level of urgency and impacts on customers.

Complaint Management Guideline for Sustainability All complaints received from customers will be communicated to the executives. The solution to the problem will be advised and guideline for prevention of repeated complaints will be prepared. In order to reduce the number of complaints in the future, the complaints are studied to improve the operational process. It is found that there are rooms for improvement in communicating to customers. Information consumption behavior has vastly been changed as a result of social media. Words and comments travel fast online. The customers in the social media expect a quick response. As statistics show, Line is the most used and popular communication channel as it is convenient and quick. The information can be sent right away and the receiver can respond back immediately. It has thus been the program used by the Company as a tool to communication to customers. Last year, the Company communicated to the customers when they made a reservation to buy condominium units, paid down payment in installments, transferred ownership of condominium units and moved in through Line, for example, information on the project, installment plan, project progress, ownership transfer process, moving in process and rules and regulations. Apart from communicating to customers to avoid future complaints, Line is used to answer enquiries and keep customers informed of the services provided. Since communication is done through Line, complaints received in the past year has decreased 23% and customer satisfaction of this communication channel is 86%. It also helps simplify the operational process. The Company will continue developing our services to match the needs of the customers in all aspects. 65

CONSTRUCTION

Green Construction Process is the management of environmental and social impacts from the construction process which affects the environment and society the most. The Company has continuously developed the construction process by increasing the efficiency of the operation and reducing the environmental and social impacts through new technology and innovation. The Q-C-S-E-S+P strategy is developed as a guideline for construction operation for both the staff of the Company, business alliances who design the project and contractors. The environmental responsibility and safety of workers and related persons are particularly emphasized. The Q-C-S-E-S+P strategy is as follows:

STRATEGY OPERATION


Q C S E S P

Quality of Product It is the management of project construction by emphasizing the quality of products i.e. common area and condominium units that meet the expectation of the customers. Apart from using high quality and environmental friendly construction materials, the construction site must be tidy and of high standard.

Cost Control and Management The costs are carefully controlled and managed not to exceed the estimated amount. Both direct and indirect costs such as material costs, labor costs and other construction and operation expenses are managed. The efficiency of the operational process is also emphasized.

Speed of Delivery It is to ensure that the construction and operational process are completed in a timely manner prior to the planned timeframe to reduce costs and risks for customers. This can be achieved from the combination of the expertise of the Company and the collaboration from all related parties.

Environmental Responsibility It is the responsibility towards the environment to reduce the impacts both in the construction site and on neighboring communities during the construction process. The measures to reduce the environmental impacts indicated in the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report are to be strictly implemented.

Safety of Workers and Participants The Company ensures the safety of construction workers and related parties during construction by establishing a strict operational standard in terms of safety to prevent any accidents that may occur. Moreover, the safety of construction equipment and buildings has always been monitored. The Company also stresses the importance of occupational health and good quality of life of construction workers.

People Management It is to manage the impacts on the stakeholders. The Company gives importance to the labor rights and quality of life of the construction workers that are normally ignored by other business operators, the responsibility towards neighboring communities of the construction site as well as mutual growth and development with the business alliances or trade partners. The communities and environment surrounding the construction site are also developed.

is the innovation that adds value to the product and service of the Company e.g. LPN Design, LPN Green Project, Living Library and Suan Ruam Jai.

Process Innovation

is the improvement of the operational process or service in response to the needs of customers. For example, B.I.M. system is applied in the construction process and being developed in the facility management process. Other processes including sales process, ownership transfer process and marketing and brand communication are also improved.

Strategic Innovation Livable Community For All “Livable Community For All” strategy is developed from “Livable Community” strategy which is the core strategic innovation that has been implemented for more than 20 years. Since the very beginning, the Company has targeted the customers in the middle to low income group consisting of young people who just start their career and are looking for their own place to live. Such target group is called “D I N K - Double Income No Kids” group. From almost three decades of project development and community management, the Community Management Department has found that the types of residents have been expanded to include older age group and extended families with elderly family members. This finding is in accordance with the fact that Thailand is becoming an aged society. In response to such development, the Company thus decides to further develop the strategy to be inclusive of all age groups. The focus will be on the development of condominium units and common area that are appropriate for the elderly who are still independent so that the “Livable Community For All” will be able to create the real pleasure of living for everyone. Lumpini community is the community in which the residents of all age groups live happily together with great quality of life, environment and society and in the culture of togetherness, care and share.

Product Innovation LPN Design The product development of the Company focuses on increasing the value that responds to the needs of consumers while maintaining the upper hand over competitors, leading to the trust in “Lumpini” brand. Throughout the years, the Company has been successful in developing products that meet the needs of customers. The heart of the development and design process of the Company is the development of “LPN Design” concept which has been widely accepted, “LPN Green” concept developed under LEED Standard as well as Mixed Target Development which is the development of project to serve the needs of both office workers and retirees. LPN Design concept starts with the 30 sq.m. studio condominium unit and 60 sq.m. two-bedroom condominium unit which introduce the new standard of condominium living since both are suitable with the Thai ways of living and are easy to maintain. Until now, the main products of the Company have constantly been improved. In spite of its small size, the 26 sq.m. one-bedroom condominium unit is able to respond to the livelihood and needs of the residents. The price range is also affordable and attractive to the target group even though the costs of project development have continuously been increasing. In 2012, the 21 sq.m. condominium unit was launched to answer to the livelihood of the younger generation. This design is firstly introduced in Lumpini Condotown Chonburi-Sukhumvit. In 2016, the Company has conducted an in-depth survey on consumers’ behavior and developed New LPN Design, 35 sq.m. condominium unit with two bedrooms and one bathroom, to answer to the needs of new couples who are building a family together and the needs of extended family. The price is also affordable. The design is firstly introduced at Lumpini Park Petchakasem 98. The architectural design of the project is also modern and environmental friendly.

LPN Green Project and LPN Signature Green Project The Company pays much attention to the impacts on the environment as a result of project development and thus comes up with “LPN Green Project”. This concept is introduced to the public and receives positive feedback in terms of the sales volume. “LPN Signature Green Project” is also developed as a model of green project that emphasizes the reduction of environmental impacts. Moreover, in 2015 and 2016, the Company has developed green design and project management standard which is in accordance with “Green Building” standard of LEED. It clearly showcases the corporate environmental and social responsibility of the Company.

INNOVATION


Process Innovation Sale Process As a consequence of the trust the customers placed in “Lumpini� brand, the products of the Company are in high demand in the market. For some projects, customers have been forming a long queue in front of the project many hours before the sale opening day in order to reserve to buy condominium units. The Marketing and Sale Department has thus come up with tag issuance and draw system so that it would be more convenient for the customers. This is the obvious example of the creation of service value to customers. Furthermore, the Company has embraced mass customization and communicated with customers through online media. As a consequence, the Company is able to significantly increase the sales volume and reduce sale costs.

Building Information Modeling (B.I.M.) in Project Management From 2013, the Company has been applying Building Information Modeling system or B.I.M. to the design and project development process in order to minimize errors in miscalculation of costs resulting from data incompletion. B.I.M. is the technology that processes three-dimensional building information and links all information together such as building form, shape, size and height and construction materials used. It can also show numerical information as well as calculate building space, amount of construction materials needed and construction costs. The Company intends to use B.I.M. to support all project management processes. The main objective is to accurately estimate the construction costs before setting the selling price to reduce operational risks. In terms of environmental and social responsibility, B.I.M. can be used to calculate cost efficiency and minimize the use of consumable materials in design which will directly help reduce wasteful use of natural resources and control costs. For B.I.M. technology to be used efficiently, the operational process and systems must be improved to link up all the information both internally and with trade partners or LPN Team. The operational strategy during the first two years has thus been focused on the provision of trainings to stakeholders through L.P.N. Academy and the development of standard manual for B.I.M. operation so that B.I.M. can be used efficiently in project management by foremen, designers and contractors.

At present, B.I.M. technology is fully implemented in project management. All the projects developed are designed and planned, the construction materials are selected and the construction is managed on B.I.M. The system has also been developed for use in facility management so that the building system and maintenance can be done more conveniently and quickly according to the operational strategy of the Company. It can be said that the application of B.I.M. in construction and facility management process is the initiation of process innovation. It allows the Company to accurately estimate project cost, establish appropriate price strategy and use resources more efficiently to minimize construction waste and environmental impacts. The Company very much hopes that this innovation will play a part in raising the standards of construction and real estate business in Thailand to become more resource efficient, which will promote competitiveness in the market for the benefit of consumers as well as sustainable development in the Thai society.
