October 19 2020 - 8:00AM
Hill International (NYSE:HIL), the global leader in managing
construction risk, announced today it was awarded Project of the
Year for the Riverfront Park U.S. Pavilion in Spokane, WA, from the
Construction Management Association of America (CMAA). Hill also
won the National Project Achievement Award for this project. In
addition, the firm received CMAA awards for three other projects.
These awards spanned the company’s work across the U.S., from
Boston, MA, to Orange County, CA, and encompassed infrastructure,
parks, and manufacturing. The awards are:
- CMAA Project of the
Year: City of Spokane, Riverfront Park U.S. Pavilion,
Spokane, WA
- CMAA National Project
Achievement Award: City of Spokane, Riverfront Park U.S.
Pavilion, Spokane, WA, in the category
Commercial/Sports/Entertainment/Hospitality: Construction value
less than $50 Million
- CMAA New England Chapter
Project Achievement Award: Northeastern University,
Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Center, Pedestrian
Bridge, Boston, MA: Project of the Year 2020
- CMAA National Project
Achievement Award: Boeing Company, V-22 Osprey Future
Factory, Ridley Park, PA, in the category
Commercial/Sports/Entertainment/Hospitality: Construction value
greater than $50 Million
- CMAA Southern California
Chapter Project Achievement Award: Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA), City of Orange County Metrolink
Parking Structure, Orange, CA, in the category of Transportation
Project $11 Million - $50 Million
Each project presented unique challenges and
opportunities, from coordinating multiple stakeholders on active
sites to integrating striking designs and new technologies. For
example, on the U.S. Pavilion, Hill managed the Progressive
Design-Build delivery of the reimagining of an iconic public
performance and park space centered around a 150-feet-tall angled
mast. In Boston, on the Pedestrian Bridge project for Northeastern
University, the team constructed a 320-foot-long, high-design
bridge connecting the buildings of the University’s science campus
above active Amtrak and Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority
(MBTA) tracks.
Similarly, the Future Factory project for the
tiltrotor Osprey V-22 aircraft repurposed a 90-year-old-plus former
steel factory on the Delaware River into a state-of-the-art
high-tech manufacturing and aircraft maintenance facility. For
OCTA, the team constructed a 5-story, 600-space parking facility in
a congested downtown area while successfully incorporating several
innovate features, including electric car charging stations,
enhanced plaza areas, and photovoltaic cells. In part through the
Hill team’s efforts, these projects were realized on-time and
as-planned.
Raouf Ghali, Hill’s Chief Executive Officer, says
of the awards: “What CMAA has recognized with these awards is the
inherent talent of all of our teams, from our clients and designer
and contractor partners to, of course, Hill’s very own project
managers, inspectors, schedulers, estimators, and engineers. I
couldn’t be prouder of these awards and our U.S. professionals and
their achievements. Well done to all involved, and a special kudos
to the Spokane team for bringing home the project of the year.”
