We’re thrilled to announce that SPORTENG has been selected as an ABA100® Winner for Service Excellence in the 2025 Australian Business Awards, a recognition that reflects our unwavering dedication to delivering outstanding service to clients and partners.

Why this award matters

The Customer Service Excellence category of the ABA100 Awards recognises organisations that go beyond delivering a product: it honours those that demonstrate leadership and commitment through service initiatives, client-centric processes and consistent service quality.

For SPORTENG, this award is a milestone that validates our holistic approach: serving clients not only through technical excellence in design and construction, but through communication, project management, transparency and support at every step.

What earned SPORTENG the ABA100 Award

Much of the submission that secured this recognition centres on our recent work with Peninsula Grammar School in Victoria, delivering a world-class athletics track and synthetic soccer pitch that meets the highest performance standards.

On that project, we guided Peninsula Grammar from feasibility and concept design through to delivery, handling site investigation, design documentation, stakeholder coordination, and on-site superintendent oversight.

The brief was ambitious: to transform existing (but outdated) sporting facilities into a modern, multi-sport precinct suitable for daily use, competitive athletics and high-performance training alike. We designed a synthetic sandwich-profile athletics track compliant with world standards, paired with a FIFA-certified synthetic soccer field built on a vertically draining system for reliable playability regardless of weather conditions.

Our management approach emphasised clear communication, rigorous quality control, stakeholder collaboration and a seamless end-to-end experience for the school; all aspects that evidently resonated with the ABA100 judges and helped secure the Service Excellence award.

What this means for SPORTENG, clients and communities

Receiving the ABA100® Customer Service Excellence Award is an important recognition of the way SPORTENG approaches every project, regardless of size or location. It highlights the strength of our internal systems, the depth of our technical expertise, and the consistency of our client engagement across the full life of a project. Most importantly, it reflects the trust our clients place in us to guide them through complex sporting infrastructure challenges with clarity, reliability and care.

This award belongs to the people behind the projects: our engineers, designers and project managers who bring the same level of attention, professionalism and commitment to every collaboration. We’re grateful to our clients, including Peninsula Grammar, for the opportunity to do what we do best: deliver high-quality sporting environments that perform, endure and genuinely serve the communities they are built for.
