The Rocky Mountain Chapter of Associated Builders and Contractors (ABCRMC) celebrated member companies for their exceptional construction projects at the 16th annual Excellence in Construction (EIC) Awards on October 20th, 2017 at Infinity Park Event Center in Glendale, Colorado. The event was brought to the ABC membership by the chapter as well as the Bald Eagle Sponsors, Adolfson & Peterson Construction and Spacecon Specialty Contractors, LLC, and the Golden Eagle Sponsor, Jones Heartz Building Supply.
Over 200 people attended the rock and roll concert-style event. The awards, themed “We Built These Cities,” opened with a cocktail party sponsored by BlueLine Rental prior to the awards and ended the night with a casino after party sponsored by Encore Electric, Inc. Following intermission, five attendees each won a giveaway of a bottle of Dom Pérignon, sponsored by Kuck Mechanical Contractors. To celebrate Mark Latimer’s retirement from his position as ABC’s President and CEO, a surprise video was played for him in which members recounted their memories and highlights from his time with ABC. To honor Mark for his many years of dedication to the chapter, the Merit Shop Defender Award has been renamed the Mark Latimer Merit Shop Defender Award. The award winners were determined by a panel of nine judges, comprised of industry experts who dedicated their time to judge the submitted projects: David Bellomo – Kawneer Kira Chafee, LEED AP – CFC Construction Sara Coutts – Neenan Archistruction Jake Hallauer, CCIM – Chrisland Real Estate Companies Kelly Hedlund, LEED AP – Armstrong World Industries Travis Hossfeld – Stafford Construction Services Corp Liz Newman – McCauley Constructors Leif Rosenvold, P.E., LEED AP – KLOK Group Tyler Whittaker – The Beck Group The judges evaluated the projects based on criteria including factors such as complexity, unusual challenges or problems overcome, innovative techniques or programs, value-engineering, safety records, and owner satisfaction. Scores in these areas determine a project’s award level: Award of Excellence (first place), Award of Merit (second place), or Letter of Commendation (third place). Excellence and Merit award winners are eligible to submit their projects to compete at the ABC National Excellence in Construction Awards, which take place in March 2018 in Long Beach, California.
