Consultancy and Engineering Awards 2019 shortlist announced

The shortlist for the 2019 Consultancy and Engineering Awards has been announced today by the Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE).

Recognising the achievements of both ACE members and non-member organisations, the awards are an annual showcase for the best that the engineering and consultancy sector has to offer.

The shortlist has been chosen by a panel of expert industry judges headed by Roger Bailey of Thames Tideway. Winners will then be unveiled at an awards ceremony in central London on 6 June.

To tie in with the ACE’s Future of Consultancy campaign, there will be four new champion categories representing some of the key areas that the campaign will address: Strategic Planning & Placemaking Champion, Integrated Project Team of the Year (Public Sector), Integrated Project Team of the Year (Private Sector), and Data-led  Asset Performance Champion.

Commenting, ACE chief executive Hannah Vickers, said: “I would like to congratulate all of the shortlisted nominees on an excellent set of entries. We look forward to seeing them all at our gala dinner and awards ceremony in June, where we will be celebrating their achievements over the last 12 months.”

The gala ceremony takes place on Thursday 6 June at the Royal Lancaster Hotel and follows a black-tie dinner. To book your place, click here.
