The PINNACLE Awards program was established in 1999 by the Nevada Chapter AGC to honor the “Best of the Best” in northern Nevada construction projects, recognizing construction leadership, excellence and community spirit. Projects must be completed in the calendar year.
Independent judges measure entries based on safety, craftsmanship, challenges met, client relations, innovation, and “green” building practices. Utah AGC assembles a panel of contractors and associates from their membership, and members of their staff to judge the projects.
A total of 15 PINNACLE Awards may be awarded, five in each of the three categories. All entries will be eligible for the “People’s Choice Award.” This award is decided at the PINNACLE Awards Ceremony based on the votes of those in attendance. Attendees are given a voting ballot to vote for the project they feel best represents the PINNACLE.
