ELEVATOR WORLD is always proud to present its annual Project of the Year contest winners
each January issue. This year, EW received 25 entries in nine categories. Our highly regarded
panel of judges scrutinized each entry and, as always, had difficult decisions to make. Each
project entry exemplified team members joining together to overcome challenges, while
going above and beyond to bring their projects in on time, on budget, 100% complete and to
the clients’ satisfaction. First Place winners for each category have been presented with
trophies commemorating their outstanding work.
The EW staff and the Project of the Year judges would like to congratulate and thank
all entrants for their participation. We hope EW readers will enjoy some of our
industry’s most significant accomplishments from the past year.
We’re looking to make the 2014 contest an even bigger success and welcome
your entry. Participation in the contest builds company spirit and staff camaraderie,
and improves client gratification. Start thinking now of any noteworthy projects
your company is working on that may be eligible for entry in 2014’s competition. The
project should be comprised of a vertical, horizontal or inclined transportation
system consisting of an innovative design, special application or approach that
solved a major problem or overcame a unique challenge. Complete contest entry
parameters will be available in the April 2013 issue of EW and online at www.
elevatorworld.com after April, and, as always, the submission deadline is August 31st.
