No fixed public project cap is stated.
What costs can qualify?
Approved facade, experiential/common-space and night-time activation costs within the supported ORRI categories.
Key conditions
Projects must fit the supported precinct categories. Individual store enhancements are specifically excluded; the intervention should contribute to Orchard Road's wider destination and visitor experience.
For any project where timing matters, applicants should avoid making irreversible commitments before confirming the programme's pre-start requirements. Where the scheme is discretionary or delivered through an appointed partner, the agency or programme partner retains the final decision on eligibility and quantum.
How and when should you apply?
STB provides current factsheet, FAQ and application materials on the ORRI page.
Is this scheme relevant to your project?
A strong fit is: A building owner or precinct stakeholder proposing a visible, public-facing intervention that materially improves Orchard Road's visitor experience.
A weak fit is: Ordinary individual store refurbishment or tenant-specific works without precinct-level value.
How Reeve | R&D supports the scheme
Reeve | R&D can manage the incentive workstream from initial eligibility assessment through project structuring, funding modelling, application preparation, evidence planning, agency interaction and post-award coordination, while the company or eligible applicant remains the formal applicant where required.
