Wincanton partnership shortlisted for British Construction Industry Award

Wincanton, a leading supply chain partner for UK business, has been shortlisted for the Partnership Initiative of the Year at the British Construction Industry Awards.

The nomination recognised Wincanton’s collaborative approach to security in its capacity as the tier one warehousing and transport partner for EDF in the construction of Hinkley Point C nuclear power station.

Wincanton is shortlisted alongside some of the most prestigious infrastructure projects in the UK, including Thames Tideway Tunnel, HS2 and Sellafield.

Run in collaboration with the Institution of Civil Engineers and New Civil Engineer, the British Construction Industry Awards are the most prestigious awards in the built environment sector. They seek to recognise and reward excellence in project delivery and, crucially, delivering positive outcomes for society.

Carl Meewezen, Managing Director, Public & Industrial, Wincanton said:

“Wincanton has worked continuously and innovatively with EDF Energy and fellow HPC Tier-1 contractors to successfully generate and embed a security culture that protects its colleagues, their working environment, and the project’s supply chain, removing risk from the build and disruption to its schedule.

“We’re delighted this collaborative relationship has been recognised at the British Construction Industry Awards.”
