Northern California Chapter, NECA Presents Project Excellence Awards
UC Merced Dining Hall | Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certified Platinum Project
Designed to recognize excellence in electrical / technology installations and the Bay Area electrical contractors responsible for their outstanding achievements, NECA’s Project Excellence Awards program has been embraced by project owners, general contractors, architects, engineers, NECA electrical contractors, and other project team members who have had the honor of receiving an award for their submitted project.
In October 2020, electrical contractors and their project team members received Project Excellence Awards. Among those honored was Collins Electrical Company, Inc. for the UC Merced Building 1D Dining Hall project.
This project consisted of electrical work for a new one story dining hall, including a basement with connection to the underground service docks. This was a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified Platinum project. Other partners recognized for their contributions to the project included: UC Board of Regents (project owner), Webcor Builders (general contractor), SOM (architect) and Cupertino Electric, Inc. (electrical engineer).
“NECA’s Project Excellence Awards program allows our electrical contractors and the project team members to be recognized for excellence in construction. NECA contractors not only perform specialized electrical work, but also follow sustainable practices to ensure the highest level of energy efficiency in new construction and retrofitted projects. This prestigious recognition gives them an opportunity to market their achievements,” said Greg Armstrong, Executive Director of the Northern California Chapter NECA.
