Collaborative Partnering Produces Significant Results in
Hong Kong for the Mass Transit Railway Co.
One of the largest construction projects in the world
- the Mass Transit Railway Corporation's $2.7 billion TKE metro extension in
Hong Kong. Completed some four
months ahead of the approved timetable, open to the public ten weeks ahead of
the original plans, producing an earlier income stream than envisioned with a
cost saving of over $400 million and an estimated ROI of over 1,000%, much of
it a result of Collaborative Partnering.
