Irish Construction Excellence Awards Winners (ICE Awards)

We are thrilled to announce our success at the Irish Construction Excellence (ICE) Awards in the Industrial category (up to €20 million) for the IDA Advanced Building Solution (ABS) in Limerick. These awards recognize and reward best practices in construction, and we are honored to be among the winners of such a prestigious accolade.

JJ Rhatigan’s delivery of the IDA Advanced Building Solution (ABS) in Limerick exemplifies construction excellence through meticulous project management, sustainability achievements, and client collaboration. This €10.6 million, 3,748m² facility, targeting LEED Silver certification, seamlessly integrates offices and manufacturing spaces, contributing to the IDA’s strategic goals.

Building on our experience with previous IDA projects, JJ Rhatigan implemented cutting-edge communication tools such as BIM 360 Next Gen, establishing a Common Data Environment. This facilitated streamlined processes, accelerating technical approvals and issue resolutions. Despite challenges like the disruptions caused by Covid-19 and hyper-inflationary pressures, the project team demonstrated remarkable adaptability in procurement strategies, fostering close collaboration with both the supply chain and the client. Concurrently managing a sister project for the IDA in Waterford provided invaluable cross-project synergies, further enhancing operational efficiencies and project outcomes. Leveraging innovative technologies like OpenSpace and digital modeling underscores our commitment to construction innovation, ensures enhanced client satisfaction, and strengthens our enduring partnership with the client.

We are immensely proud of our dedicated team for their outstanding work on this project. Congratulations to everyone involved on receiving this well-deserved award.
