IRMI presents two unique awards at the Construction Risk Conference.
The Gary E. Bird Horizon Award recognizes innovation in construction
risk management. IRMI also honors outstanding speaker(s) with the
presentation of the Words of Wisdom Award.
The Gary E. Bird Horizon Award recognizes innovation in construction
risk management. The award is named in honor of Gary E. Bird, a
nationally known risk management expert lost in the terrorist attacks
of September 11, 2001. Gary expanded the risk management horizon
as he searched for new and innovative ways to approach the risks
associated with large construction projects.
