THE ASSOCIATED GENERAL CONTRACTORS OF AMERICA NEWS RELEASE – On Wednesday, February 19, the 47th annual “Skill, Integrity and Responsibility (SIR) Awards” will be held by the Nevada Chapter of the Associated General Contractors (AGC) of America. This gathering brings together Northern Nevada’s top general contractors, specialty contractors and building professionals. For 75 years, the Nevada Chapter AGC has helped build the Northern Nevada community with “skill, integrity and responsibility (SIR),” the AGC motto. The Chapter’s over 300 members are proud to build a better community with these values.
Awards are given to honor the men, women and organizations that have made outstanding contributions to Nevada’s quality of life and the construction industry. Originating with the Nevada Chapter in 1967, the SIR Award was adopted by AGC chapters nationwide, including the national office in Washington, D.C.
AGC will present construction industry awards for the 2013 calendar year. Quality, ethics, dependability, and high professional standards are the foundation of the AGC’s contractor, subcontractor, supplier and design professional of the year awards. The winners are determined by the votes of their fellow members – the men and women who work with these firms and see first-hand how they perform on a daily basis. These coveted awards are also based on how firms keep to a schedule, pay their bills, maintain a safe work environment and produce quality work.
The SIR Awards will be held Wednesday, February 19, at the Peppermill Resort Hotel, Capri Ballroom. The Awards Banquet begins 6:00 p.m., with the “Contractor of the Year” being awarded at approximately 7:20 p.m.
The Nevada Chapter AGC’s success over the years can be directly attributed to working together to build a better community. Not only do AGC members build our roads, runways, schools, parks, and hospitals, but they also contribute to the quality of life that makes Nevada a great place to live.
