Construction consultancy firm JCV & Associates Project Management and Development, Inc. (JCVA) reported a robust project pipeline for 2025, JCVA CEO Jason Valderrama announced at a recent media roundtable.
The announcement comes as Business Monitor International’s latest Infrastructure Report projects the Philippine construction industry to grow by 8.2% annually through 2028.
JCVA, which marks its 10th year of operations this year, maintains a diverse portfolio spanning residential developments, logistics and industrial build-outs, commercial spaces, and healthcare facilities nationwide.
“Our team has laid strong groundwork for 2025, with several major projects secured,” Valderrama said. “We’re looking forward to bringing our tech-forward solutions to both local and multinational companies across various industries.”
Digital solutions
In an industry often viewed as slow to adopt new technology, JCVA sets itself apart by integrating digital solutions into multiple stages of their work.
The firm uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) to create digital project models, enabling teams to collaborate remotely and identify potential issues before construction begins.
The firm also uses an AI-powered platform that provides 360-degree documentation of construction sites in real-time. For larger projects spanning several hectares, JCVA deploys drones for comprehensive site monitoring.
The firm’s clients also have full visibility of project progress through JCVA’s proprietary cloud-based platform called ‘Agile + Vault’, which makes project monitoring a more efficient experience. “Through this platform, clients can access real-time updates on schedules, budgets, and construction progress, including daily site photos and walkthrough videos–all without needing to visit the site,” explained Valderrama.
Sustainability
Alongside its digital capabilities, JCVA is also keenly focused on sustainability in construction.
The firm is currently handling eight projects that meet international green building standards. A flagship example is their exclusive project management partnership with one of the world’s largest sports retailers, whose locations in the Philippines are all EDGE certified – indicating they are more energy and water-efficient than standard retail projects. JCVA has already completed seven of the retailers’ local branches, and is currently working on two more.
Another project of note is JCVA’s work as sustainability consultant for a 10-hectare warehouse distribution center in Calamba, Laguna, developed for a global shipping and logistics company. Working with both the developer and the locator, JCVA guided the project toward LEED Gold Certification by implementing key sustainability features.
The facility uses rainwater harvesting systems that eliminate outdoor water usage, efficient fixtures that cut indoor water consumption by half, and a combination of energy-efficient lighting, solar panels, and mechanical systems that reduce energy use by 55%.
Looking forward to 2025, Valderrama identifies logistics, healthcare, and tourism as three key growth areas for Philippine construction.
“We’re definitely looking to take on projects in these industries next year. Logistics facilities for one have been in high demand with the boom of e-commerce here in the country. In healthcare, there’s also a clear scarcity of hospital beds that we hope to address. We’re also seeing renewed activity in the hospitality sector with domestic and international tourism rebounding,” said Valderrama.
From international retail chains to logistics infrastructure, JCVA’s portfolio demonstrates its versatility in managing complex projects across industries. The firm has grown significantly since its founding in 2014, building expertise in both traditional and emerging sectors of construction.
With its robust pipeline and expertise in both technology and sustainable construction, JCVA is helping set new standards for Philippine construction management.
