Once again showcasing some of the finest examples of Design/Build in the commercial HVAC market, Contracting Business is proud to present the 2006 Design/Build Awards. Now in their 16th year, the Design/Build Awards honor the boldest, most creative, most innovative work being done by commercial HVAC contractors across the nation.
This year's winning projects spotlight the challenges of the retrofit/renovation market. As always, the customers' diverse needs and desires took center stage, as befits the Design/Build process. While we're honoring outstanding HVAC companies here, the real winners are the customers who reap the benefits that Design/Build provides.
Congratulations to all!
