Initially the scheme was not appreciated well and the momentum of Building Centre activities went at a snail pace rate. However, with the intervention of KARNIK as a state level nodal agency for the development of Building center activities in Karnataka the momentum start picking up from the year 1994 onwards. A need for application of Cost Effective Technology was felt during the 80's and a beginning was made by the district administration in Kollam District of Kerala for the application of the cost effective technology in practice on an experimental basis.

This unique experiment was successful in the year 1986 which lead to the movement of national level by establishing a NIRMITI KENDRA in each district. As part of Government of India's "Housing Policy -1988, HUDCO took the initiative in giving further pull up to the building Centre movement for the transfer of technology from "LAB TO LAND" by getting the financial assistance from Government of India in grounding the scheme at the National Level.

Government of Karnataka also took the initiative and started implementing the Scheme from the year 1990 onwards by establishing a Kendra in each district of Karnataka. Initially the scheme was not appreciated well and the momentum of Building Centre activities went at a snail pace rate.
