Landsec’s pioneering Forge project leads Digital Construction Awards nominees

Landsec’s MMC demonstrator project, The Forge in Southwark, south London, leads the nominations for the Digital Construction Awards.

The office development is shortlisted in five categories:

  • Best Use of Data on a Project
  • Digital Construction Project of the Year
  • Digital Innovation in Offsite
  • Digital Innovation in On-site Productivity
  • Digital Partnership

As well as Landsec, The Forge involves Bryden Wood, Sir Robert McAlpine and Mace.

Bryden Wood scored another pair of nominations in the Best Application of Technology and Best Use of Data on a Project categories for its automated cable routing management system with Transport for London.

Mace, Multiplex, Skanska, Vinci

Mace dominates the Digital Innovation in Offsite category, in which all three shortlisted entries focus on a different Mace project.

Entries from or featuring Skanska UK and Skanska joint ventures were shortlisted 10 times in total across six categories.

Multiplex and Vinci Construction secured three nominations, while BAM Nuttall and Taylor Woodrow are each shortlisted twice.

The awards attracted more than 120 entries, of which 63 have been shortlisted across 11 categories. The entries were judged by a panel of impartial and unbiased industry leaders, representing a wide spectrum of disciplines and expertise from across the industry.

You can view the shortlists in full on the Digital Construction Awards website. There is no shortlist for Digital Champion of the Year: the winner will be revealed alongside the other 11 victors at the awards dinner on 12 July at the Brewery in London.
