For the second year in a row, HCSS HeavyBid has won the Gold Medal in the Software category in the second annual Roads and Bridges Contractor's Choice Awards.

Contractors from around the country voted on their favorite products and equipment in a ballot that was distributed earlier this year.

The Roads & Bridges Contractor’s Choice Award is considered the seal of excellence. For recipients the award not only constitutes the crowning achievement of their efforts, but more importantly it also represents the most valuable reward of all, the knowledge that they have earned the trust and loyalty of contractors.

"We are excited to be recognized again by our customers in an award as prestigious as this," said HCSS Chief Operating Officer Steve McGough. "It’s an honor to receive the top award when we are competing with all software vendors our customers use, like accounting and scheduling."

HCSS will receive the award at the ARTBA National Convention being held October 9-11 in Fort Lauderdale, Fl., and are featured in a special section of the July issue of Roads & Bridges magazine.

The Contractors Choice Award Gold medal is the latest in a series of honors and rankings for HCSS. HCSS was considered a Hot Company by Constructech Magazine, ranked number six in the Houston Business Journal’s list of Top Software Companies, recently made the Inc. 5000 list, and several customers have been awarded Constructech magazine’s Vision Award. In 2006, HCSS was named one of the Best Places to Work in the state of Texas in Texas Monthly Magazine.

Roads and Bridges is published monthly and is the leading publication for the construction market with a circulation of over 60,000 contractors, engineers and public officials.
