The State of Tennessee honored all that CSI does to advance building information management and the education of project teams to improve facility performance within the commercial construction industry, with a state proclamation recognizing CSI.

CSI Board of Directors Chair William Sundquist accepted the honor at the office of Representative Yusuf Hakeem, along with Tara Mitchell, Harry Harris and Lynn Jolley of the CSI Nashville Chapter.
In the same kind of clear, specific language many specifiers would respect, the state presented, “A resolution to honor the Construction Specifications Institute for outstanding service to the commercial construction industry, the members of this General Assembly take great pleasure in recognizing those dedicated professionals who work to improve communication among stakeholders in their respective fields.”
The proclamation, which was signed by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee, along with Speaker of the House of Representatives Cameron Sexton and Speaker of the Senate Randy McNally, noted that “CSI chapters across the country do much more than provide networking opportunities, they also sponsor high-quality education programs and events that help members share real-world solutions and better understand the roles and responsibilities of each member of the construction team.”
Sundquist said, “What I love about the proclamation is how pretty much all of it speaks to all our members valuable contributions to the industry.”
Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett had his own praise to add in honor of Sundquist’s value to the state and CSI, stating, “Proud of my friend William Sundquist. He continues to make our state proud.”
In closing, the House and Senate concurred, “That we honor the leadership and members of the Construction Specifications Institute for their outstanding service to the commercial construction industry and commend their ongoing commitment to improving communication among commercial construction professionals through extensive education, rigorous certification, and uniform standards.”
