What a night! 🏆

We were absolutely delighted to win Infrastructure Project of the Year (Below £10m) for our Hilden & Lambeg Sluice Gates Replacement Project at the .

While we're rightly proud to receive this prestigious recognition, awards like this are never won by one organisation alone. This project was delivered through a fantastic team effort, and we are indebted to the client, supply chain partners, designers, stakeholders and every individual who played a role in turning a challenging and important infrastructure project into a reality. Your expertise, commitment and collaboration made this achievement possible.

A huge thank you also to the Construction Employers Federation (CEF) for hosting another outstanding evening celebrating the very best of our industry. It was a fantastic opportunity to recognise the people, projects and partnerships that continue to raise standards across construction in Northern Ireland.

And finally, a special mention to the Little Heroes Sparkle Choir, who completely stole everyone's hearts. Their performance was a powerful reminder of the incredible impact that Little Heroes has on children and families across Northern Ireland, and there wasn't a dry eye in the room.

Congratulations to all the finalists and winners. We're honoured to be among such exceptional company and look forward to building on this success together.

🏆 Infrastructure of the Year | NI Construction Awards 2026

We are incredibly proud to have been awarded Infrastructure of the Year at the Northern Ireland Construction Awards for the successful delivery of the Hilden and Lambeg Sluice Gates Replacement Project. Congratulations to everyone involved, and particularly to our partners at Amey and the Department for Infrastructure, whose collaboration, expertise and commitment were instrumental in delivering this important £1.5m flood alleviation scheme.

Pictured are Ross McNeilly of Flynn and wallace mckay of Amey receiving the award on behalf of the project team. The scheme provides vital protection to homes, businesses and infrastructure across South Belfast and Lisburn, helping communities become more resilient to the increasing risks associated with severe weather and flooding.

Delivered within a live river environment on the River Lagan, the project involved the complete replacement of ageing sluice gate infrastructure across two locations through a carefully planned two-phase programme. From complex structural, mechanical and electrical upgrades to the successful installation of a 9-tonne flood gate at Hilden, the project showcased the engineering capability, innovation and collaborative approach of everyone involved. Most importantly, it has delivered a long-term flood resilience solution that will protect local communities for years to come. A fantastic achievement and a well-deserved recognition for all those who contributed to its success.

A brilliant morning and a privilege for Flynn to host the launch of Work West's Social Value Connect project.

The conversations today reinforced why social value matters so much. Bringing together businesses, social enterprises and public sector organisations with a shared purpose can only be a good thing.

Congratulations to the Social Value Connect team on a fantastic launch, and thank you to everyone who contributed to such an engaging discussion. We're proud to have played a small part and look forward to supporting the positive impact this initiative will create across Northern Ireland.

🔥 What an afternoon! Huge thanks to everyone who came along to our CPD session on Fire Safety Works at the Arc Apartments.

Fire safety on a project of this scale is a seriously complex beast — but somehow our guest experts from RMI Architects, Tenmat, and Vulcan Cladding Systems made it feel genuinely manageable. You took what could have been a very dry, very technical subject and turned it into something everyone in the room actually understood (and enjoyed!). That's a skill in itself, so thank you 🙏

It was brilliant to see so much of Northern Ireland's Building Control community turn out for it too — great to host colleagues from:

🏢 Ards and North Down Borough Council

🏢 Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council

🏢 Belfast City Council

🏢 Fermanagh & Omagh District Council

🏢 Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council

🏢 Newry, Mourne and Down District Council

🏢 Northern Ireland Housing Executive

Sessions like this are exactly why we love hosting them — a room full of people leaving with a bit more clarity, a few myths busted, and (hopefully) a decent cup of tea inside them. The Arc Apartments project is no small undertaking, and getting to demystify the fire safety works with the people who matter most made for a great few hours.

Thanks again to everyone who gave up their time — see you at the next one! 👋

A huge thank you to Ciarán Fox, the The Royal Society of Ulster Architects, and Professor Joan McCoy McCoy of White Ink Architects for delivering such an important CPD session on the Building Safety Act as its implementation continues to evolve in Northern Ireland.

The session reinforced the critical importance of competence, compliance, and accountability across the construction sector—principles that are central to the successful delivery of higher-risk residential buildings.

Thanks also to James Eyre of Titanic Quarter, Stephen Miskelly of RMI Architects, and Stephen McGuigan MSc, MCIOB, PMP McGuigan of FLYNN (Maurice Flynn & Sons Ltd) for sharing practical insights from our ongoing work at ARC Apartments, one of the largest and most significant Building Safety projects currently being delivered in Northern Ireland. The project is setting new benchmarks for compliance, resident safety, quality assurance, and collaborative working, demonstrating how clients, designers, and contractors can work together to deliver safer buildings and meet emerging regulatory requirements.

We are incredibly proud of the entire project team and the professionalism, competence, and commitment they continue to demonstrate as we deliver this landmark scheme and help shape the future of building safety in Northern Ireland.

As the industry adapts to a new era of building safety, projects such as ARC Apartments provide a real-world example of how competence, compliance and collaboration are essential to delivering safer homes and better outcomes for residents.

🔥☀️ Team BBQ 2026 – Official Incident Report ☀️🔥

This afternoon's Health & Safety review identified four key risks:
• Direct sunlight
• Approximately 47 litres of ketchup
• An industrial quantity of burgers and sausages
• Deano attempting to personally feed the entire workforce

Nothing says staff appreciation quite like gathering the team in a gravel yard beside the Harland & Wolff cranes on one of the hottest days of the year and convincing ourselves it's a wellness initiative.

While most of the workforce formed an orderly queue stretching halfway across Titanic Quarter, our BBQ crew bravely stood over a grill already operating at temperatures usually associated with metal fabrication. Despite battling smoke, heat, and relentless demands for "just one more burger", they somehow kept the production line moving.

Great food, plenty of laughs, cold drinks, and a chance for colleagues from sites, offices and projects across the business to catch up away from deadlines and day-to-day pressures.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, and especially to the BBQ team who willingly stood inches from an open flame in mid-20’s heat so the rest of us could enjoy a break.

Outcome achieved: 100% burger delivery, zero food waste, excellent stakeholder engagement, and a fire strategy that would absolutely not pass Building Control.
