— NEWH, Inc. is proud to announce the launch of the inaugural Structures of Hospitality Excellence (SOHE) Award. Continuing NEWH, Inc.’s commitment to recognizing excellence in the hospitality industry, the award will honor construction companies for their exceptional methods, processes, and team management. Nominations for the program are due November 22, 2024, and the awards ceremony will take place during the ALIS DESIGN+ Event at the JW Marriott in Los Angeles in January 31, 2025.
Honorees will be selected based on their contributions to the creation of significant and outstanding hospitality renovations and new-build structures worldwide. To be eligible, one person within the nominated firm must be a current voting member in good standing with NEWH. Additionally, the firm must have completed a new-build or renovation hospitality project within the 18-month period prior to nomination including hotels, casinos, bars, restaurants, or spas.
Submissions will be judged based on the uniqueness and scope of the submitted project, the impact your company has had on the hospitality construction industry, outreach efforts through education or corporate giving, and the company’s involvement with NEWH. Additionally, submissions must include a minimum of three and a maximum of six photographs of the project alongside three reference letters.
The NEWH SOHE Award nominations can be submitted in several ways: any firm with a current NEWH member can nominate themselves, any NEWH member can nominate a construction firm, and chapter members are encouraged to support eligible firms in completing the nomination form or assist them throughout the process.
In conjunction with this award, NEWH will award two scholarships to students pursuing careers in construction, funded by Delta Faucet Company and ALIS DESIGN+. The first is a $10,000 scholarship to a four-year student majoring in architecture, construction management, civil or environmental engineering, or project management. The second, a $5,000 scholarship, will be awarded to a student pursuing a technical certificate or associate degree in any of the building trades from a junior college or trade show.
All nominations should be completed online at https://newh.org/sohe-award ahead of the November 22 deadline. To learn more about NEWH, its events, membership opportunities, and educational offerings, please visit www.newh.org.
