The problems of Industrialised Building System (IBS) associated with construction such as decreasing quality and productivity, unskilled labour, occupational safety, and inferior working conditions have hampered on the implementation of IBS in Malaysia but opened the possibility of more revolutionary solutions within the industry. One of the prospective options is the implementation of automation and robotics in IBS. Integrating automation and robotics into the design, manufacturing and construction processes of IBS offers not the only improvement in accuracy, consistency and efficiency, but also opportunity to improve the construction industry regarding productivity, safety, quality and increase the implementation rate of IBS in Malaysia. All the data and information gathered directly from libraries, books, articles and other printed materials searched in the international and national journals, proceeding and bulletin. This paper aims to identify the potential criteria for measurement of automation and robotics in IBS.
