Judges
Each year, we assemble an independent panel of senior clients and leading industry figures who generously dedicate their time and expertise to review hundreds of entries. Working against strict criteria, our judges score each submission with the aim of recognising and rewarding the very best in construction.
Our 2026 Judging Panel will be announced soon – stay tuned to see which industry leaders you could be presenting your achievements to.
If you’re from a client organisation, industry association or engineering consultancy and would like to participate in judging, please contact Gwyn.Davies@emap.com.

Judging process
The Entry Process
Entering the CN Awards is your chance to showcase your achievements to the industry’s most respected clients and leaders. To give your submission the best chance of success, we strongly encourage entrants to back up every statement with clear evidence – whether that’s data, testimonials, measurable outcomes, or examples of innovation in action. The more criteria you can evidence, the stronger your entry will be.
Every entry is carefully reviewed and scored against the published criteria by our independent judging panel to create the shortlist. Shortlisted entrants will then be invited to face-to-face judging , where you’ll have the opportunity to expand on your written submission, bring your story to life, and demonstrate your passion and commitment to the sector.
This rigorous process ensures that every winner is selected fairly, transparently, and for the true impact of their work.
Live judging for shortlisted entrants will take place 11–15 May 2026 at our London offices:
emap Publishing Ltd
2nd Floor, Harmsworth House
13 – 15 Bouverie Street
