The National Excellence in Building & Construction Awards Program
The industry's prestigious annual three-day celebration culminates in the announcement of the country's best builders in the residential, commercial and civil/infrastructure construction and recognition for the projects that have won them acclaim.
About the awards
The National Excellence in Building & Construction Awards is the annual culmination of a nationwide grassroots process to determine the best of the best each year.
To be in the running for a National Excellence Award, entrants must have progressed from winning awards in their State or Territory and must be nominated by their local Master Builders Association to being judged for a national award.
The builders that rise to this point become National Finalists, and their projects are assessed against those of their peers from every State and Territory by the National Awards Judging Panel.
National Winners are announced at the National Excellence in Building & Construction Awards Gala Dinner, the highlight of the three-day annual National Awards program.
