CCA Excellence in Innovation
The CCA Excellence in Innovation Award recognizes outstanding CCA member firms who have implemented innovative construction practices within the past two years. These practices must have been a “first-time” use or adoption for use in Canada, but may have been previously applied or used elsewhere.
The recipient is awarded with the Hugh R. Montgomery Memorial Trophy, which commemorates the life and work of Hugh R. Montgomery, a past president of CCA who gave generously of his time and experience for the general well-being of the industry.

Ledcor Pipeline Ltd.
Coastal GasLink's 48-inch diameter pipeline extending between Dawson Creek and the LNG Canada Facility in Kitimat, BC, required navigating challenging construction terrain, including many steep slopes through the Rocky Mountains. The Ledcor Project team was determined to mitigate the numerous risks involved and identified that a trenchless installation method would be the most suitable at this location - giving rise to the steep slope Raise Bore.
Ledcor's innovative approach achieved safety enhancements, increased productivity, and put environmental responsibility at the forefront.
