The construction landscape continues to evolve, and off-site construction methods are taking center stage. The Offsite Project of the Year category at the Construction Technology Awards celebrates projects that demonstrate exemplary planning and execution of offsite construction methods. Whether it's volumetric modules, panelised systems, bathroom pods, MEP modules, or large and complex precast projects — this category showcases innovation at its finest. Check out the key elements that could help you win the Offsite Project of the Year award.
Key Considerations for Offsite Project of the Year 2024:
1. Understand the Criteria:
To stand out in the Offsite Project of the Year category, your project should showcase how offsite construction methods were planned and executed. The project must be finished or at the end of a big phase within the last 24 months. Highlight gains in time, efficiency, safety, quality, waste or greenhouse gas management, and cost.
2. Identifying Main Project Stakeholders:
Emphasize and acknowledge the roles played by contractors, consultants, developers, and owners. Offsite excellence is a collaborative effort, and recognizing the contributions of each stakeholder is key.
3. Tangible Benefits to the Project:
Provide detailed insights into the tangible benefits your offsite construction methods brought to the project. Whether it's time savings, enhanced safety measures, improved efficiency, better waste management, or cost-effectiveness — each benefit should be supported by evidence.

DuBox is a leader in the offsite manufacturing of volumetric modules in the GCC, delivering reduced costs, more quality and faster completion times.
The company completed a large residential complex for The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) in Saudi Arabia; 288 one- and two-bedroom units for the management and office staff. Over 75% of this project was designed, manufactured, and assembled off-site at DuBox in Saudi Arabia. Pre-cast concrete modules were constructed, fitted out with electrical, mechanical, and plumbing engineering, then transported to the Red Sea site.?
Quality Assurance and Quality Control processes, along with meticulous inspections, ensured unwavering commitment to consistent quality within the controlled environment of the production bays.?
This project stood out by initiating offsite construction alongside site clearance, saving a remarkable 74 days. Beyond time savings, it achieved a 30% cut in labor costs, a 50-90% decrease in overall waste, and a commendable 30% reduction in solid waste. Completing 30% quicker than traditional construction, it not only met budget and schedule but also delivered economic benefits and positive environmental and HSE outcomes. An innovation narrative in construction excellence.
