BABC Texas Patron Member, Gleeds, is delighted to announce that our Americas team has been honored with two major awards from Construction Management Association of America’s South Atlantic Chapter (CMAA-SAC): ‘Program Management – Residential / Mixed-Use’ and ‘Project of the Year’, for the ‘Amber Grace Community’ just outside of Atlanta.

With the Amber Grace Community, Gleeds delivered a $70 million purpose-built community that expands long-term living opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, safeguarding its community impact through disciplined project, cost management and strategic value engineering. Despite complex market conditions, the team-maintained cost certainty and ensured the project’s vision was realized without compromise.

Amber Grace demonstrated innovation through its ability to rapidly adapt design to meet evolving, real-world user needs without impacting schedule or cost. The solution reflects a highly agile, user-centered approach.

Stuart Lumsden, CEO and Project Principal, “We are delighted to receive these two awards for this outstanding project, with the results exceeding all expectations. I couldn’t be prouder of the team behind Amber Grace. Their agility, empathy, and commitment to delivering meaningful outcomes made this recognition possible. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
