Ms. Ada Fung, JP is an Architect by profession. She is an active member in the Architectural field as well as in the construction industry in Hong Kong.

In her career as Deputy Director of Housing, she supervises the Development & Construction Division of the Housing Department, overseeing all facets of work covering project management, planning, design and contract management, as well as establishing operational policies on procurement, design, construction, quality, performance assessment, dispute resolution, research and development, safety and the environment for public housing development in Hong Kong. She also promotes partnering, value management, risk management, ethical integrity, corporate social responsibility, sustainable development, green building and Building Information Model in the industry. She is the Chairman of the CIC Task Force on Site Safety of Working in Lift Shaft.
 
She is also an accredited mediator on the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre’s Panel of Mediators, and she is the Chairman of the Architects Registration Board and Vice President of the Hong Kong Institute of Architects.
 
For the first time in history, the Hong Kong Housing Authority has adopted "Integrated Contract" for the design and construction of over 8,000 public rental housing flats at Kai Tak Site 1B, where some existing piles had been completed some years ago. There was a window of opportunity to innovate in a risk-reduced environment.
 
With an aim to procure for innovations, a 3-envelope tendering system has been developed. This procurement system is an innovation on its own, being the first-ever in both the local and global arena. Why should it be done this way? What are the risks involved and mitigated? What are the achievements? This talk gives an account of the development of this procurement system, its risk-mitigation measures, key performance results and achievements, as well the way forward.
