HDC Hyundai Development Company records and manages the construction process at building sites nationwide through video. This proactive move came just one day after Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon requested private construction companies to participate in Seoul City's construction video recording initiative amid ongoing controversies over poor-quality construction.

On the 20th, HDC Hyundai Development Company announced that it plans to integrate a construction video recording management system into its already operating quality management real-name construction system and implement it at sites nationwide. The quality management real-name construction system records inspection details for each floor and section with photos during construction, and before moving on to the next phase, the construction manager, foreman, and site manager approve each step. In addition, the company plans to thoroughly manage construction site safety and quality by filming the entire process with closed-circuit television (CCTV) and body cameras.


HDC Hyundai Development Company plans to form a dedicated quality monitoring team depending on the size of the site to ensure smooth operation of the system.


Earlier, Seoul City introduced a system in July last year to record and manage all construction processes on public construction sites with budgets exceeding 10 billion KRW through video. Based on the results of a one-year pilot program, the system will be expanded next year to include public construction projects under 10 billion KRW and private building sites.



An HDC Hyundai Development Company official said, "The newly promoted construction video recording management is expected to create synergy with the quality management real-name construction system and the quality monitoring team system, helping to prevent accidents, avoid poor-quality construction, ensure quality, enable early accident response, and prevent recurrence."
