Every year ACI Kuwait Chapter recognizes and presents two awards, one to an outstanding project and the other to a deserving individual. The Award of Excellence, which is for a project, and the Award of Achievement are presented during the Chapter’s highly anticipated grand Awards Banquet.

The Chapter has presented these awards every year since 2001, except in 2019 and 2020 as our functions had to be cancelled due to Covid-related restrictions.

This year’s well attended awards ceremony was held at Radisson Blue Hotel in Abdul Hussain Marafie Ballroom on 31st May, 2022, under the patronage of His Excellency, Mr. Ali Hussain Ali Mousa, Minister of Public Works and Minister of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy.

The Award of Excellence is bestowed on a local project of outstanding merit. The award itself, comprising a trophy, plaque and certificate, is given to the owners or developers of the project. Certificates of Excellence and plaques are also presented to the general or main contractor; the design and supervision consultants; and the main concrete supplier.

This year ACI-KC honoured Kuwait University’s College of Engineering and Petroleum, located in its New University City in Shadadiya. The project was appreciated as a “sustainably designed higher education facility that seamlessly and elegant architecture with contemporary engineering and smart systems”. The award was presented to Kuwait University Construction Program (KUCP), which manages the new campus and all its buildings on behalf of Kuwait University.
