Sisk and its JV Partner Roadbridge won this significant award at the Constructing Excellence in Wales 2014 awards.
 
This £47million scheme is an exemplar project for the whole industry on how to deliver a landmark scheme collaboratively. Whilst an NEC3 form of contract and an early contractor involvement procurement approach was adopted it was the cultural and behavioural changes that stood out.
 
Its Partnership Charter managed to enshrine a non-confrontational approach and open door policy that allowed the client, Welsh Government to work as closely as possible with its supply chain partners Hyder Consulting, SRB Civil Engineering UK Ltd (Roadbridge / Sisk JV) and their designer Ramboll UK as well as overcome major operational and maintenance shortcomings of the existing road. The judges were particularly impressed by the idea of the internal charter and how its guaranteed goals and behaviours embedded a culture that supported integration and collaboration. It was clear that they were not buzzwords, but a project lifestyle that helped overcome a series of issues.
