The shortlist for the first ever Digital Construction Awards, in association with the UK BIM Alliance, has been announced and recognises some of the most innovative projects, companies, and individuals in the built environment across eight different categories.
Cofounder and event director Oliver Hughes said: “We’ve had an incredible response to the awards especially given it’s the first year. What’s been great is to see so many innovative ideas and examples of how technology is really starting to shape the industry and the tangible results of this.”
This is not a paywall. Registration allows us to enhance your experience across Construction Management and ensure we deliver you quality editorial content.
Registering also means you can manage your own CPDs, comments, newsletter sign-ups and privacy settings.
“The submissions have been astounding and made our work as judges pretty difficult,” added Anne Kemp, UK BIM Alliance chair. “We now have a finalist list that everyone should be proud and celebrate whether they win or not. Good luck to everyone!”
