BCA CPD Reporting helps you prepare, review, and submit monthly construction manpower data to BCA through GoBuid.

GoBuid checks your reporting projects, member information, and attendance records before submission, so you can identify and resolve missing or invalid data before sending your report.

BCA CPD Reporting is available on web for companies that have the feature enabled.

Before you start

Before you can use BCA CPD Reporting in GoBuid, your company must first be registered with SGBuildex.


After registration, GoBuid will verify your company’s eligibility and complete the required integration setup. Once your company is eligible, GoBuid will enable BCA CPD Reporting for your company.


After BCA CPD Reporting is enabled, an authorised user can complete the required reporting setup before preparing the first report.

Set up BCA CPD Reporting

Once BCA CPD Reporting is enabled for your company, complete these setup areas:


  • Company reporting information: Go to Company Settings > Government Reporting to add the company details required for BCA reporting.

  • Reporting projects: Go to Compliance > Projects to select the projects to include in BCA reporting and complete their required information. Only active projects you have permission to view can be added. Archived projects are not available for selection.

Use Compliance > Overview to check your setup status and continue any remaining setup.

You only need to complete the initial setup once, but you can update your company information or reporting projects later if needed.


Note: Your access and editing options depend on your GoBuid permissions. You can only update project, member, attendance, or submission data that you have permission to edit.

Check your reporting readiness

Go to Compliance > Overview to check the current reporting period.

GoBuid checks three areas:

  • Projects: Required BCA information for your reporting projects.
  • Members: Required identity, work pass, employer, and trade information for members included in reporting.
  • Attendance: Attendance records and reporting information required for the current period.

The Overview shows whether your reporting data is ready or if there are records that need attention.

Resolve reporting issues

If GoBuid finds missing or invalid information, the affected area is marked as Needs attention.

Open the issue to see the affected projects, members, or attendance records.

Depending on the issue, you may need to:

  • Complete missing project information.
  • Update a member’s BCA reporting information.
  • Correct an attendance record.
  • Set the required trade information.

After the source data is updated, GoBuid checks the reporting readiness again.

Resolve all blocking issues before preparing your report for submission.

Review your report

When the required reporting data is complete, open the current Reporting Period and proceed to review the report.

Before submitting, review:

  • Reporting summary
  • Projects and members included in the report
  • Attendance data for the reporting period
  • Any remaining warnings

You can also preview the reporting data before confirming the submission.

A report must be reviewed and submitted by a user. GoBuid does not automatically submit a report when the data becomes ready.

Submit your report

When you have reviewed the report and it is ready:

  1. Open the reporting period.
  2. Select Review to submit.
  3. Review the reporting data.
  4. Select Submit.
  5. Confirm the submission.

GoBuid sends the reporting data through the configured BCA CPD integration.

The submission status is updated after the submission is processed.

Track your submission

After submitting, you can return to the reporting period to check its status.

If the submission is successful, the reporting period shows the completed submission and keeps a snapshot of the data that was submitted.

If the submission fails, GoBuid shows the available failure details and affected records so you can identify what needs to be corrected.

View previous submissions

Go to Compliance > Reporting Periods to view current and previous reporting periods.

For a submitted reporting period, you can select View submitted snapshot to see the data that was included in that submission.

The submitted snapshot preserves the submitted data even if the source information in GoBuid is updated later.

Resubmit a failed report

If a submission fails:

  1. Open the failed reporting period.
  2. Review the failure details and affected records.
  3. Correct the relevant data in GoBuid.
  4. Return to the reporting period.
  5. Select Prepare resubmission.
  6. Review the changes.
  7. Confirm and submit the report again.

GoBuid keeps the previous submission information so you can review the reporting and resubmission history.
