2012 Construction Management Project Achievement Awards

The Construction Management Association of America, Northern California Chapter is pleased to announce our 2012 Project Achievement Awards program. This program was created in accordance with our Chapter Bylaws and our mission to promote excellence and professionalism in construction management. We hope to have another year of outstanding applicants and give recognition to those projects that demonstrate exceptional achievement in the practice of construction management.

PURPOSE
The program is designed to recognize and promote professionalism and excellence in the management of the construction process.  Awards will be given to the projects that best reflect this mission.

CRITERIA

• The competition is open to all CMAA Northern California Chapter members
• Nominated projects must have been substantially completed between
  January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011
• Projects must be within the Northern California regional area.
• Submissions must be made by or for a CMAA member.
• Multiple Submissions are welcome.

The Northern California Chapter will recognize Public or Private projects completed in the Northern California Chapter regional area in the following major categories:

1. Less than $10 million
2. $10 million up to $50 million
3. $50 million up to $100 million
4. $100 million or greater

Awards may be bestowed with further category breakdowns including but not limited to:

• Transportation /Transit

EVALUATION
The criteria for evaluating nominations focuses on outcomes, overall management, safety performance, quality management, cost management, schedule management, complexity, innovation and creativity, and client service/satisfaction.  Scoring weights are identified on the Project Nomination Form.

This is a competitive process.  Only the best project in each category will be selected.  Honorable Mention awards may be presented.

Only nominations that follow the format defined in the Project Nomination Form will be evaluated.

PRESENTATION
The awardees will be contacted directly after the review committee has made their final decision, so that they can make arrangements for the appropriate project participants to be present at the awards ceremony.

As with last year’s program, the awards will be presented in conjunction with our annual Scholarship Dinner. This annual event presents scholarships to local students who have met the chapter standards for excellence in their fields of endeavor, and who have qualified to receive both recognition and a stipend for their continued education.

The Project Achievement Awards & Scholarship Gala is scheduled for April 19, 2012 at a location (TBD) in San Francisco. We look forward to seeing you all at this rewarding function to celebrate both our peers’ success and the success of those individuals who will someday soon be working with us.
