AP’s team has proudly been a part of many award-winning projects over the years. This year, we couldn’t be happier to highlight and announce the 2024 PCI Design Awards winners of the projects we have been involved with from start to finish.
What are the secrets of an award-winning project?
Winning is not mad science. In fact, it is quite simple. Once an idea is generated and envisioned in the construction industry, the key is doing the following things, consistently and well:
- Communicate and share information with all parties involved.
- Collaborate with the architect(s).
- Be conscious of the timeline.
- Design assist with the pre-caster(s) and implement a solid manufacturing plan.
- Establish a planned delivery date and deliver on time.
