Demonstrating the company's dedication to its supply chain partners, Prater has won the coveted Supply Chain Integration Award at the prestigious Construction News Quality Awards.
 Selected from a shortlist of six, including a number of strong main contractor candidates, Prater took the competition by storm with their supply chain strategy which places a strong emphasis on maintaining strong relationships with all suppliers and clients and integrating sustainable practices into all projects. This is achieved through a number of initiatives including the annual Supply Chain Conference.
Hosted by newsreader, Huw Edwards, the ceremony took place on Thursday 24th June at Westminster Park Plaza, London, and was attended by over 600 construction industry professionals.
Established by Construction News Magazine 15 years ago, The CNQ Awards demonstrate the quality of the UK construction industry on encouraging innovation, management of best practice and effective team work.
Managing Director Tony Birkbeck, who collected the award for Prater, commented: “To be recognised with such an industry accolade really is a fantastic achievement and represents the excellent communication and processes we have with all our partners. We were up against some big names in our category and were thrilled to be rewarded for all our hard work. 
“We have been working closely with all our supply chain partners, building solid relationships and ensuring we deliver quality projects for our clients and it certainly looks like it has paid off.”
Nick Edwards, Editor of Construction News Magazine, commented: “The CNQ Awards ceremony is one of my favourite nights of the year – that’s because it’s our chance to celebrate everything that’s great about this industry. Celebrating quality gets even more important in tough times and this is proven by the companies who are constantly fighting to improve themselves, achieving some fantastic results.”
