Mace wins new government-backed construction award
Construction company Mace has been awarded the new 바카라 사이트楽ir Michael Latham바카라 사이트� prize at the 2018 Construction News Awards, supported by the Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA) and Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).
Mace바카라 사이트檚 innovative Jump Factory project at N08 East Village in Stratford, East London. The Factory was constructed using their innovative 바카라 사이트楻ising Factory바카라 사이트� method which is likely to be adopted across the industry over the next few years.
The Sir Michael Latham award was created by the 바카라 사이트 to recognise construction firms who adopt modern methods of construction, innovative technology, collaborative working and high quality apprenticeships.
Mace is a leading British construction company and is being recognised for their innovative 바카라 사이트楻ising Factory바카라 사이트� method, where a factory climbs up a building as both the structure and internal rooms are built within.
The awards are independently judged by construction industry experts who called Mace바카라 사이트檚 entry an 바카라 사이트榠ngenious development바카라 사이트�, and one which is likely to be adopted across the industry over the next few years. This approach is estimated to make construction safer, 25% faster and to cut waste by 75%.
The award is supported by the IPA, part of the Treasury, and BEIS. It was created in Sir Michael Latham바카라 사이트檚 honour as one of the first individuals to advocate for greater modernisation of the construction sector in his 1994 Constructing the Team report.
This is the first time the award has been presented at the 2018 Construction News Awards, where Mace also won Best Innovation for its 바카라 사이트楻ising Factory바카라 사이트�.
It follows publication of the Construction Sector Deal and Transforming Infrastructure Performance programme - the 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트檚 long term plans to improve productivity of the sector.
The Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, Robert Jenrick MP, speaking at the award ceremony last night said:
