The Awards of Excellence Gala is going virtual! With our members’ health and safety top of mind and the new restrictions due to COVID-19, we have decided to turn our annual awards gala into an exciting virtual event.

Each year the Minnesota Construction Association (MCA) honors companies and construction professionals who make substantial contributions to the community and the Association. The annual MCA Awards of Excellence is the industry’s premier event dedicated to recognizing accomplishments on construction projects. Join MCA and catch up with industry friends, network, and celebrate our award winners!

MCA Choice Award

The MCA Awards of Excellence committee is always searching for the best and most challenging projects in the Midwest to consider for the MCA Choice Award. This award is unique as it is not a nominated award or a people’s choice award. A panel of MCA members select projects completed by member companies they feel is most deserving.

The award is presented to a project that was constructed through:

  • Resourceful blending or construction techniques and professionals.
  • Evokes positive ideals through community service or historical preservation
  • Showcases a truly professional team effort
  • Spearheaded by strong leadership
  • Unique or visionary in design, stands out aesthetically
  • Achieved through an innovative blending of progressive business and financial methods
  • Involved creative use of materials
  • Utilized public and private involvement and cooperation
  • Completed safely with minimal injuries

Previous MCA Choice Award winners include McGough Construction’s Bell Museum, RJM Construction’s Treasure Island Center, Ryan Companies’ Downtown East Mixed Use Development and Knutson Construction’s Target Field Station to name a few.

The nomination deadline has passed. 

Individual Excellence Awards

General Contractor, Subcontractor, Construction Service Provider and Design Professional of the Year will be decided by the members via electronic vote. Watch your email for more information!
