With only a few weeks to go before the entry deadline now is the time to be finalising your submission to the Welsh construction industry’s best celebration of excellence. 

Are you thinking about your entry into the 2016 CEW Awards? You should be preparing now and thinking about how to best showcase what your team is doing and the great projects you’re involved with now as all entries must be completed by the 29th February 2016. 

The CEW Awards is arguably one of the many reasons that Welsh construction is doing so well right now. It has improved a great deal in the ten years of the CEW Awards, partly due to sharing the lessons learned and making the best practice from these outstanding award winning projects public. Ten years of brilliant construction projects showcased via the CEW Awards has put our industry right in the public eye. 

Being a part of the CEW Awards is an intrinsic element of pushing and pulling our industry forward. So, why not be a part of it what is a great process and an even better night of celebration at the awards event itself? The deadline for entries is 29th February – not long now, but still time to put together a winning formula. 

If you are considering showcasing your team, your projects, one of the SMEs you work with or sharing success with a client or partner organisation then why not think about entering our new award category for 2016 – BIM project of the year. BIM is now an accepted method of delivering projects of all sizes and an excellent way to work collaboratively and drive best practice and with more and more examples of its use in Wales it deserves its own award category at the CEW Awards. Judges will be looking for projects embracing BIM that point to benefits to end users, suppliers and project teams perhaps with examples of working around tight site situations and assisting with time and cost savings as well as enabling structural innovation. The use of all the elements of BIM and the integration between the client and other team members early in a scheme will be important factors in a winning entry.
