Boxcore has been shortlisted for two categories at the Building Innovation Awards 2026, the UK’s only construction awards scheme certified with the Outstanding Awards Trust Mark by the Independent Awards Standards Council (IASC).
Boxcore is a finalist in:
The Building Innovation Awards shortlist recognises companies driving genuine change across the UK construction industry from advanced materials and BIM workflows to digital platforms reshaping how sites operate day to day. Being named a finalist in two separate categories reflects the breadth of what Boxcore’s platform delivers: stronger site safety outcomes and a genuinely new approach to construction technology.
This category recognises technology that measurably improves safety outcomes on construction sites. Boxcore’s platform uses facial recognition-based attendance to give site managers accurate, real-time visibility into who is on-site at any given moment, closing the gap left by manual sign-in sheets and buddy-punching. That visibility isn’t just an administrative convenience; in an emergency, knowing exactly who is on-site can be the difference that matters most.
This category looks at companies bringing fresh thinking to construction technology, solving problems the industry has lived with for years, in ways that weren’t possible before. Boxcore’s approach to workforce management, attendance verification, and payroll fraud prevention through facial recognition reflects exactly that kind of shift: using AI and innovative solutions to solve a problem that’s historically been handled with paperwork and trust alone.
For anyone encountering Boxcore for the first time via this shortlist: Boxcore is a construction technology platform built on three pillars.
Construction firms use Boxcore to replace manual, error-prone sign-in processes with a system that’s accurate, auditable, and built for how sites actually operate.

Being shortlisted once is a strong signal. Being shortlisted twice, in both a safety-focused category and an innovation-focused category, speaks to how Boxcore’s platform delivers on two fronts at once: protecting people on site, and doing it through technology that didn’t exist in this space a few years ago.
