BuildSpace (BuildSpace Pro)
Tier A · ListedMalaysian cloud platform for construction tendering, estimating and project delivery
BuildSpace is made by Global PCK Solutions Sdn Bhd of Kuala Lumpur, which cites research dating back to 2011.

Malaysia note
BuildSpace is a Kuala Lumpur product used on Malaysian projects by developers and contractors such as Gamuda, PKNS and YTL Construction, according to its site. It covers tendering, estimating and progress evaluation, not LHDN e-invoicing, so pair it with accounting software for MyInvois submission.
