I am so grateful to everyone who took the time to fill out a submission form. This is my second year judging our Top 10 Awards. I thought choosing winners would get easier now that I have more experience, but that was far from the truth. So, what caught our eye? How did we make these decisions? We're suckers for narrative, and narrative is born out of conflict. Therefore, we loved submissions that explained the challenges that teams faced on the job, and how they overcame those hurdles to get the job done. Stories about teams coming together to accomplish a goal will never get old. Given the poor state of America's infrastructure, we also were attracted to need. Projects that desperately needed to be accomplished to improve the lives of those in that region. And then, of course, there's innovation and design: where the nuts and bolts of the job meets the technology shaping how the jobsite operates. |
