WATCH | Continual Learning key to Buildcorp's 6 new MBA Construction Awards
Buildcorp and our project partners were proud winners at the 2017 Master Builders Association NSW Excellence in Construction Awards on the 4th November. Taking home five project awards and a merit for our site safety systems, Buildcorp’s teams were recognised for new build, fit-out and refurbishment solutions across a wide variety of sectors.
Buildcorp’s key difference is what we do with the things we learn and our commitment to continual learning and process improvement has helped us evolve our expertise over 27 years. So, to celebrate our MBA success, we created a ‘Continual Learning Lesson Book’ summarising our lessons learnt and achievements for each of these award-winning projects.
