Finalists Announced in 2021 AEMT Awards Programme

Having been forced to withdraw from staging its annual awards dinner and presentation ceremony last year, due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Commissioning Specialists Association is looking forward to its return on the evening of Thursday 11th November 2021.

Originally scheduled for its regular slot in June 2020, following hugely successful events having been staged every year since 2015, the Gala Awards Ceremony will return to the Guoman Tower Hotel, nestled between Tower Bridge and St Katherine’s Dock on the banks of the River Thames in London.

The event will once again bring together the entire commissioning sector in a celebration of business and professional excellence. Recognising and rewarding the achievements of both individuals and companies operating within this crucial area of the construction and refurbishment industry, personal endeavour, product innovation, skills training, engineering advancement and commercial acumen will be acknowledged and celebrated.

Operated by the Commissioning Specialists Association and produced by Touchwave Media, the awards will again acknowledge the skill, effort and sheer dedication of the people and businesses serving today’s complex built environment business sector. With sponsorship provided by a host of leading industry names, well deserved industry-wide recognition will be given to those businesses and individuals that are excelling in their commissioning endeavours.

Mark Todd, CSA Chairman, commented: “The 2019 CSA Awards proved to be a huge success and once again provided an excellent forum through which to celebrate business and professional excellence. I very much look forward to building on that success with the delayed 2021 awards programme which I feel sure will provide another superb platform for promoting the excellent work being undertaken by commissioning engineers across the sector. As the saying goes, ‘you need to be in it to win it’, and the submissions this year were again of an extremely high calibre. Just being selected as a finalist is a tremendous achievement and I would applaud all those you have made it this far. We now very much look forward to seeing you will be announced as the eventual Winners.”
