Judging
A panel of independent judges from the construction industry
has been appointed. These judges represent ECSA, SAICE,
MBA and CIOB. They are Trueman Goba, chairman of Hatch
Goba and former ECSA and SAICE president; Nico Maas,
chairman of Gauteng Piling and former president of the
Master Builders’ Association; and Rob Newberry, managing
director of Newberry Development and founding president of
the Chartered Institute of Building.
Each criterion as set out for the various categories will be
scored out of 10 – with 10 being the highest score and one
being the lowest – it is therefore VERY important that entries
address the criteria for the particular category it is entering.
In each category an Overall Winner Award and one or two
Highly Commended Award(s) will be made. A ‘Special
Mention’ award may be given.
Awards evening
The awards ceremony will be held on
Wednesday, 8 November 2017
at the Royal and
Kensington Golf Club in Johannesburg.
