Fort Smith-based Turn Key Construction Management has earned first place in the category of Renovations and Restoration under $1 million in the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Arkansas Excellence in Construction awards.
The award was for work on the Fort Smith Regional Dialysis Center project.
“ABC congratulates Turn Key for their outstanding work,” Bill Roachell, ABC Arkansas president, said in a statement. “This project is a true example of exceptional craftsmanship and professionalism that define merit shop construction. It is an honor for the association to recognize this project with our top construction excellence award.”
ABC Arkansas designed the Excellence in Construction program to recognize excellent performance in the merit shop construction field. The award honors all construction team members, including the contractor, owner, architect and engineer.
This year's competition was open to all construction projects completed by ABC member firms during 2012. The winning projects were selected from entries submitted from across the state and were judged on complexity, attractiveness, unique challenges overcome, completion time, workmanship, innovation, safety and cost.
The architectural firms used were Architecture Plus Inc. and Engineering Elements TLLC.
A panel from the construction management department of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock served as the competition’s judges.
