Though the original deadline for ENR Southwest's annual Best Projects competition has passed, there's some good news to report. We've extended the ENR Southwest deadline through Friday, July 7 to complete entries for projects located in the states of Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico.

To be eligible for entry, projects must have been completed between May 1, 2022 and May 31, 2023. Also, firms may submit as many entries as they'd like, though each project can only be submitted into one of the 18 different main project categories. However, all entries are eligible to be submitted for consideration in the special categories of Excellence in Safety and Excellence in Sustainability. Additionally, all category winners will go on to compete in ENR's Best Of The Best contest.

All winning Southwest projects and teams—highlighted by the recognition of the Southwest Project of the Year—will be celebrated at our annual Southwest Best Projects event in the fall.

So we encourage you to submit your company's most challenging and successful projects for consideration! Click here to submit your project by the official deadline of 11:59 p.m. ET July 7. If you have any questions, please reach out to me, Scott Judy, at judys@enr.com.
