Building God’s Way (BGW) hosted the BGW Builder Conference on November 8-9 at the Ogden Eccles Conference Center in Ogden, UT. Held every 18 months, partner contractors from all across the U.S. gathered with BGW leadership to share ideas and strategies, discuss challenges and review new opportunities in facility design & construction for churches and Christian schools.
On Monday evening at the conference dinner banquet, several builder partners were recognized for outstanding achievement in the areas of stewardship, job site ministry, and business development.
S&B Construction and Weaver Commercial Contractor were presented with the Ministry of Construction Award, in recognition of their outstanding efforts to coordinate ministry outreach on BGW job sites and help church clients impact the lives of workers with the love of Christ. An integral part of the BGW approach since its foundation, the Ministry of Construction program involves organized acts of hospitality, appreciation and kindness to the workers throughout the duration of a construction project.
The Steve Hartman Stewardship award was presented to five builders in recognition of the outstanding value and savings their companies have delivered to BGW clients. Award recipients included The Collage Companies, Erickson-Hall Construction, Hilbers, Inc., S&B Construction and Weaver Commercial Contractor. The award is named in honor of the late CEO of BGW, Steve Hartman, who was instrumental in bringing innovation and organizational structure to the BGW pre-construction stewardship process, one of the key programs that distinguishes BGW in the marketplace by incorporating valuable subcontractor input prior to the completion of construction drawings. It also leverages construction industry relationships and linkage within the ministry that can lead to significantly reduced costs.
Three builders were also recognized for their excellence in business development and establishing new relationships with church and Christian school clients. Award recipients included The Collage Companies, S&B Construction and Weaver Commercial Contractor.
