The Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE) has announced its shortlist for this year’s prestigious Consultancy & Engineering Awards. From the business categories, chosen for overall business performance, to the champion categories, the awards showcase the best that the engineering and consultancy sector has to offer.

This year’s shortlist was an arduous decision for judges, with the winners to be announced at the Consultancy & Engineering Awards Gala Dinner in central London on 7 June 2017.

Commenting on the shortlist, Dr Nelson Ogunshakin OBE, chief executive of ACE said: "As we face the many political uncertainties ahead, it is vital for our industry to continue as the backbone of the UK, not only providing the best properties, housing, schools and major infrastructure projects necessary to modern life, but also as a shining beacon for exceptional talent and innovation. The strength of this year's entries is a clear indication that the future is bright for our industry. Congratulations to all those shortlisted for their remarkable achievements from companies across the built and natural environment sector. I look forward to welcoming you to the 2017 Consultancy & Engineering Awards Gala Dinner this June to be hosted by acclaimed newscaster Clive Myrie."
