AI & Construction in HK: The AI June Mandate Decoded

​The Hong Kong government just mandated AI in capital works projects. Here's what it means for your firm.

​On 1 June 2026, the Hong Kong Development Bureau issued Technical Circular (Works) No. 3/2026 — formally mandating AI adoption across all capital works consultancies and contracts above defined thresholds.

​This is policy.

​If your firm works on consultancy contracts with a pre-tender estimate exceeding HKD 15M, or works contracts exceeding HKD30M, this mandate applies to you — starting now.

​In this session, AAL INNOVATION co-founders Adeline Chan and Anne Zhang will break down:

• ​Which types of AI are we talking about

• ​Exactly what DEVB Technical Circular (Works) No. 3/2026 requires, and which firms it applies to

• ​The enhanced CITF funding landscape: per company, per applicant, specifically for AI and robotics (effective 1 May 2026)

• ​A clear map of Hong Kong's AEC ecosystem — government bodies, professional institutes, and funding channels — so you know who to engage

• ​Where to start if your firm has not yet begun its AI journey

​Whether you are a developer, contractor, consultant, or sub-contractor, this session will give you a no-nonsense understanding of the policy landscape and a clear picture of how to position your firm for what is already underway.

​This session is part (and first) of the AAL Intelligence Briefings monthly series.
