What the judges said...

The runners up

Electrical Contractors’ Association
Health and safety are well and truly at the top of the agenda for the ECA. With the launch of its Zero Accident Potential (ZAP)scheme, the ECA set about raising awareness of H&S procedures and the importance of thorough training. Its worthy aim of cutting down the number of life endangering incidents on sites in the UK is one which the whole of construction should support. Whitby Bird & Partners
By ensuring that the Emissions Trading Scheme was available to groups, rather than simply individual organisations, Whitby Bird opened up the possibilities of this programme to a much wider range of clients. The company demonstrates that government can be approached and persuaded to change the way things are done, if the advice and arguments are sound. FaberMaunsell
Last year as Oscar Faber, this company was the only construction firm to appear on The Sunday Times ‘50 Best Companies to Work For in the UK’ survey. With a deep commitment to recruitment and training in services engineering, the firm shows that well-motivated and well-trained team creates the best work.
