CoatingsPro Extends Nomination Deadline for 2022 Contractor Awards

CoatingsPro Magazine’s sixth annual Contractor Awards Program is now open for submissions, with a new deadline of Nov. 18, 2021! CoatingsPro Magazine, which takes a real-world look at the coatings industry, showcases projects and crews that demonstrate excellence in the commercial and industrial high-performance coatings sectors in this annual program.

Award winners are recognized in seven categories—Commercial Concrete, Commercial Roof, Industrial Concrete, Industrial Steel, Specialty Project, Work It Safe, and Contractor/Crew MVP—which will be recognized at the annual AMPP Conference + Expo in March 2022 in San Antonio, Texas.

Submit a Project

To be eligible for an award, the project(s) must meet the following criteria:

  1. Anyone is eligible to submit a project or crew, but the nomination must focus on one specific project from the coatings contractor's point of view.
  2. Projects should be completed between November 2019 and November 2021—that’s two years of eligibility instead.
  3. The entry form package must be delivered by 11:59 p.m. EST on November 18, 2021.
  4. Project pictures are required.

    a. Digital format preferred in jpeg or GIF. Photos are preferred to show before, during, and after shots in files no smaller than 1 MB.

    b. A photo release form must be signed and sent with the other submission documents to CPcontractorawards@coatingspromag.com. Photos are preferred to show before, during, and after shots in files no smaller than 1 MB.

    c.  All photos must be Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) compliant.

Judging the Awards

The award submissions will be rated by the CoatingsPro Editorial Advisory Group. These are industry experts who will judge the projects according to the following award guidelines:

  1. Did the contractor complete the nomination form? To be eligible, submit a completed nomination, including the completed form, photos, and a signed photo release form.
  2. Challenges and Problem Solving—Any challenges or unusual circumstances that had to be overcome? Did the challenge require out of the ordinary problem solving?
  3. Was the crew safety compliant per OSHA? The project should have been completed in an OSHA-compliant work environment. For example, if fall risks couldn’t have been engineered out of the project, all crew members should have worn fall protection when necessary.
  4. Were there measurable monetary savings?
  5. Was this an innovative project? Innovations can be large or small. Your crew may have used a new process, tool, or piece of equipment to complete the project, for example.
  6. Was this job efficient? This may be in relation to time or money savings, material wasted, etc.
  7. How was this project unique? Every job is different. What separates this project from others that you’ve completed? It may have contributed to a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating, for example.
