History

The Public Works and Convicts Department was formed in 1833 after George Drumgoole Coleman became the first superintendent.[1] The department was formally established as the Public Works Department of Singapore (PWD) in 1946.[2]

Under Temasek Holdings, it was incorporated in 1999[2] and renamed to PWD Corporation before again being renamed to CPG Corporation in 2002.[1] A year later, it became part of the Downer EDI Group.[3][1]

In 2012, the ownership of the CPG Corporation group of companies was transferred from Downer EDI, Australia, to China Architecture Design and Research Group.[4]
