Initially, this project featured construction of an integrated terminal to address the problem of traffic congestion in Bicutan; however, five years after the initial conceptualisation, an exhibit centre was added to the plan.

Following construction, this integrated terminal and science centre building will serve as the first of its kind in the Philippines, stated DPWH.

The five-storey building will be constructed in an area of 13,680m2 within DOST compound.
