L&K Engineering has emerged as the leading main contractor in Singapore, according to Hubexo’s inaugural Singapore Construction League. The ranking, based on the total value of projects that began construction in 2025, highlights the firm’s dominance with two major high-tech industrial projects valued at over $4b combined. This reflects the increasing influence of semiconductor and advanced manufacturing projects in Singapore’s construction market.
The report, which spans commercial, community, industrial, and multi-residential sectors, reveals that the top 50 contractors initiated 142 projects with a combined value of nearly $28.7b. The top 10 firms alone accounted for over $17.1b across 41 project commencements.
Woh Hup secured the second position with six projects valued at just over $2.5b, whilst Obayashi Singapore ranked third with three projects totalling more than $2.4b. The rankings underscore the strength of Japanese contractors in Singapore’s major project sectors.
Ashleigh Porter, President of APAC at Hubexo, noted, “The inaugural Singapore Construction League highlights a market increasingly shaped by specialised expertise, high-value industry investment, and sophisticated project delivery.”
The rankings also spotlight the growing presence of large regional contractors, with China State Construction Engineering Corporation and Lian Beng Group both making significant contributions. The list is a testament to the evolving landscape of Singapore’s construction sector, driven by technological advancements and a focus on high-value investments.
