Through its Others segment, the company delivers three-dimensional Building Information Modelling (BIM) structural engineering design, shop detailing, and specialized steel procurement solutions. AYS Ventures serves diverse end markets, including commercial and residential construction, civil infrastructure, heavy engineering, oil and gas, power generation, and marine shipbuilding throughout Malaysia, Singapore, and the broader Asia-Pacific region.
