The National NECA Excellence Awards took place in Sydney this year and the competition was intense.  State winners from across Australia came to the national awards ceremony with great expectations.  In some categories we had as many as seven finalists.  We saw projects as diverse as upgrading the Sydney Harbour Bridge’s communications network through to work on Jamie Oliver’s new restaurant in WA.

The Sydney event was facilitated by Andrew Daddo – TV presenter and writer, who kept everyone entertained as the evening progressed and the awards for the ten categories were presented.  The winning projects were some of the most spectacular developments competed over the past 12 months or so.  And they included the Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH) in New South Wales, the Sir Samuel Griffith Centre in Queensland and the Anderson Point Port, in Western Australia.

Three Queensland projects, two New South Wales projects and one from Victoria, Western Australia, ACT, South Australia and Tasmania received the top national awards in front of over 400 industry representatives including contractors, educators and government representatives at the showcase event of the electrical and communications industry at the Sheraton on the Park in Sydney.
