SCF Awards 2022

Annual SCF Awards

Having had to announce the winners of our last two Annual Awards remotely, it was great to finally meet face to face and celebrate some great successes achieved through the framework this year.

As well as acknowledging the excellent work of our main contractors, this year we wanted to continue recognising the hard work of sub contractors working with our main contractors.

Across all categories there has been exceptional commitment to projects as well as a focus on collaborative working, which has helped deliver some fantastic results.

Congratulations to all the winners and thank you all for your efforts!
