Achieving Net Zero in a Project

Olive Grove Highways Maintenance Depot - Integra Buildings Limited

This was a well structured entry with clear impact to users and the environment. The fabric first principles, airtightness, and switch to MMC were central to the reduction in carbon use. The savings were clearly stated and the building appears to perform well for the users. Each of the judging criteria were addressed specifically and directly answered.

Best Temporary Building Project – Construction

 YTL Office & Welfare Refurbishment - Wernick Power Solutions

This project perfectly showcases one of the greatest benefits of modular construction, providing clear evidence of its positive impact on the circular economy.

Best Temporary Building Project – Private Sector (Leisure, Events, Offices, etc)

 First Hydro – Dinorwig Quarry - Portable Offices (Hire) Limited

A fascinating project overcoming the challenges of construction in a remote and potentially hazardous environment prone to rockfalls. MMC therefore offered an efficient solution compared against traditional methods, and the company managed to work around the restrictions imposed by a working site around them. The structures can be relocated and re-used, giving sustainability benefits. 

Best Temporary Building Project – Public Sector (Education / Healthcare)

A 'Mini Hospital', open within 10 weeks - Vanguard Healthcare Solutions

An absolutely brilliant award entry! To build a mini hospital in just 10 weeks is a fantastic performance. Vanguard clearly rose to the challenge. Brilliant feedback from the client to evidence success. A great example of when MMC comes into its own to solve a major customer crisis. And buildings don't get more complex than hospitals with all the additional services to accommodate.I don't think i've ever seen so much positive feedback on a single project - including from clinicians who can be very sceptical about interim building solutions. That is very powerful and impressive.

Innovation of the Year – Product, Process or Company

MOD 100m Firing Range - Actiform

A truly innovative solution utilising MMC and a market leading proposition.

Stuart Norris Technical Achievement Award

Wernick Power Solutions

This is a very impressive facility resulting from a £3m investment. Using telemetry, it can track and optimise benefits associated with MMC such as reducing energy use and carbon emissions, delivering savings for clients and benefiting the environment. Investment in dedicated bespoke software helps to achieve this, showing the company's commitment to technical advances, and the site includes excellent training facilities.

Project of the Year – Education (SEND/CAMHS/Mental Health)

St Philip’s School - Wernick Buildings

I applaud Wernick for being able to deliver such a high quality building in a short space of time on a very difficult site. With mature trees and existing buildings extremely close to the new build, it is clearly evident that a great deal of care and collaboration has gone into making this new SEND facility for St. Philips School.

Project of the Year – Healthcare (Primary Care)

Good Hope Hospital - McAvoy

The building fits well within its context and provides a much needed extension to the existing building. Coordination with the hospital to allow for ongoing operations, including ambulance access, throughout the build, was admirable.

Project of the Year – Healthcare (Secondary/Tertiary Care)

 Isles of Scilly Hospital - Premier Modular

An outstanding example of careful logistics, planning and on site works to deliver a building into one of the most challenging site of any of the entries into these awards, Well done.
