History

IJM Corporation Berhad was formed in 1983. The name "IJM" is derived from the name of three different companies. “I” stands for IGB Construction Sdn Bhd was incorporated in 1981, “J” stands for Jurutama Sdn Bhd was incorporated in 1970 and “M” stands for Mudajaya Construction Sdn Bhd was incorporated in 1965. In April 2007, IJM acquired the Road Builder Group (“RBH”), its nearest competitor, to augment its position as one of the country’s biggest builders. In addition to bolstering its construction order book, property land bank and infrastructure portfolio, the enlarged Group enabled IJM to attain considerable synergistic benefits, greater local prominence as well as attain a more sizeable balance sheet to bid for larger jobs and facilitate its expansion into overseas markets.
