Digital Transformation to Cultivate a "Happy Workplace"

In line with global trends, CONINCO has proactively integrated digital technologies into its core operations. As the nation enters a new era of growth, Dr. Ha Minh reaffirmed that technology is the "master key" to sustaining and elevating the company’s competitive edge.
He emphasized that digital transformation at CONINCO is not merely about procuring software or hardware; it must be implemented substantively and effectively to trigger real breakthroughs. A strategic pillar in the Chairman’s vision is the "human factor": technology should not only drive business performance but also create a "Happy Workplace". By streamlining manual procedures and optimizing collaborative workflows, digital solutions will alleviate employee pressure, ignite creativity, and foster a deeper sense of belonging within the "CONINCO common home".

The Key to Risk Management and Quality Assurance for National Projects 

Building on this vision, General Director Nguyen Dang Quang stated that in the era of Industry 4.0, digital transformation is an absolute necessity for construction firms to optimize processes. CONINCO’s stance remains firm: "Without digital transformation, there is no development".
As a leading consultancy firm involved in the majority of Vietnam’s national key projects, the requirements for Transparency – Efficiency – Risk Mitigation are paramount. The General Director expressed his confidence that the partnership with UET would help CONINCO realize advanced digital solutions in:
•    Quality Management: Ensuring all consultancy, supervision, and design processes are strictly controlled via real-time data.
•    Resource Management: Optimizing labor productivity and implementing scientific personnel allocation.
•    Data Transparency: Building a seamless information system to empower the Board of Directors with accurate, timely decision-making capabilities.

UET Solutions: From "Digital University" to "Digital Enterprise" 

Prof. Dr. Chu Duc Trinh, Rector of UET, expressed his admiration for CONINCO’s scale and strategic roadmap. He shared UET’s success as a pioneer within the Vietnam National University (VNU) system, having effectively implemented a "Digital University" model powered by a centralized data governance ecosystem. This infrastructure has optimized end-to-end workflows, from academic administration to advanced research.

Leveraging this practical expertise, UET experts provided critical insights into CONINCO’s "Data Equation". They identified data as CONINCO’s most valuable asset, accumulated over decades. Developing an intelligent, interconnected, and analytical data system will provide leadership with a holistic view. UET committed to partnering with CONINCO to design a digital roadmap that is both "accurate and impactful," specifically tailored to the nuances of the construction consultancy industry.

The Synergy of Knowledge and Practice 

CONINCO’s digitalization journey avoids superficial trends, focusing instead on substantive values: competitiveness, transparent governance, and a happy workplace. The synergy between CONINCO’s vast practical experience and UET’s cutting-edge technological prowess is expected to create significant momentum. At the close of the meeting, both parties agreed to promptly establish a specialized working group to resolve the data and process challenges identified during the session.
