CMYA Awards (CM 01/10)
As a retired FCIOB now nearly 80 years of age, I value greatly my copy of Construction Manager and in general I find the articles entertaining, although I tend to think too few articles are focused upon the actual construction process and too many on new technology which in my opinion has not really greatly improved quality nor speed of construction.
However, the October 2021 edition devoted 15 pages to actual construction successes which cheered an old man and brought back happy memories. During the 1990s and through till 2011 I had the good fortune to serve on CIOB senior boards and be heavily involved with the Direct Membership Examinations (DMX), where I met two very influential FCIOBs, Sir Ian Dixon and Sir Michael Latham. Both of these gentlemen would be delighted by the content of the 15 pages on the CMYA Awards.
Sir Ian was a staunch supporter of professional standards and the value of MCIOB, both to the individual and the company. His beliefs are as strong now, within Willmott Dixon, as they were back in the 1990s when I was fortunate enough to discuss such issues with him personally. In a year when normal working was greatly disturbed by Covid, Willmott Dixon had 20 nominations shortlisted and achieved four main awards in each of Gold and Silver.
