Awards

During our 70-year operating history, we have been well recognised for our engineering expertise, innovative infrastructure solutions and transformational projects.

We’re proud to be acknowledged by the industry and our peers for our achievements across the building and construction, rail and transport, and water and infrastructure sectors. Being recognised in prestigious state-based, national and international award categories for civil engineering, workforce development and tunnelling is on par with the recognition we’re gaining for social impact. 

Where communities are being transformed with our procurement of social and indigenous enterprises is the work we want to deliver. We’ve also received high scores for our Diversity and Inclusion and Workplace Equity and we’re working to better those every year. 

We will continue to strive for the gold standard in these measures across every project we deliver.
