FREDERICK, MD, February 28, 2013 — Bechtel has honored 68 companies for outstanding work on power projects at the annual Subcontractor and Supplier Recognition awards program held by Bechtel’s Power business unit.

• Subcontractor of the Year: Nooter Construction Company,
• Supplier of the Year, Power Generation Equipment : Toshiba International Corporation
• Supplier of the Year, Balance of Plant Equipment: Howden Denmark A/S

We are honored to have them as partners.”

Companies were evaluated on multiple factors. They include overall performance; the ability to deliver quality equipment on time; the ability to work collaboratively to meet milestones; and meeting or exceeding project expectations in aspects of safety, construction performance, technical expertise, and environmental compliance.
