Remarks:
*MiMEP refers to the integration of multi-trade building services components, into a single volumetric assembly of prefabricated modules, manufactured off-site in a workshop, then transported to the site for connection of modules to complete various trades of building services installations to minimize on-site works. MiMEP can integrate with structural element, architectural builders’ works and finishes (ABWF) to form an advanced assembly, such as false ceiling unit and plant room unit to enhance the productivity.)
# Examples of prevailing existing practices in Hong Kong include elevators, escalators, chillers, generator sets, AHU's, switch boards and the like are mostly prefabricated off-site for delivery to site in modules. For MiMEP subsidy to be granted, the applicant needs to justify and demonstrate the extra prefab/modular effort over and above the prevailing existing practices.
