The very best in merit shop construction honored at ABC’s 32nd Annual Excellence in Construction Awards dinner
Norwood, MA Over 300 people turned out to honor their fellow members at the 32nd Annual Excellence in Construction Awards dinner, held on November 7 at the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel.
The awards recognize overall excellence in project execution, craftsmanship, safety, innovative elements, overcoming challenges, along with client satisfaction. They had an unusually high number of winners this year, with nine projects earning Eagle awards, which represent the pinnacle of achievement, and 13 winning Merit awards, which are reserved for work that stands above the rest. For the second year in a row, BW Kennedy won the ABC Spirit Award for completing its Eagle award-winning project with the largest number of ABC subcontractors and suppliers.
“For 32 years, ABC MA’s Excellence in Construction Awards has recognized the outstanding work of our member contractors,” said ABC MA president Greg Beeman. “Every year it re-energizes us to see what our members are capable of, often in the face of immense obstacles.”
