Unified construction control portal to be introduced in Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan plans to launch a unified information system for the construction sector by the end of the year. The new platform will integrate all existing industry portals and operate as a one-stop service, providing up-to-date information—from urban planning to project commissioning. The digitalization of the construction sector and the urban planning cadastre was discussed by the government. The system currently covers urban development projects in 89 cities and more than 90% of engineering infrastructure. A shared construction registry has been created, and a unique facility identification number is being introduced to ensure end-to-end verification of documents from project initiation to commissioning. Artificial intelligence will also be used to monitor illegal construction across the country.

«If discrepancies are detected in approved urban development projects, the system will generate a notification to the state architectural and construction control authorities to take the necessary measures. This technology will serve as an additional tool for identifying unauthorized construction without proper documentation. The pilot project is expected to be completed this year, with plans to legally formalize and expand the technology to the regions in 2026,» said Kuandyk Kazhkenov, Kazakh Vice Minister of Industry and Construction.
