Turner & Townsend wins Fit Out Project Management Firm of the Year at the Fit Out Awards 2025

Acknowledged for transformative growth throughout 2025, Turner & Townsend secured the Fit Out Project Management Firm of the Year award at the Fit Out Awards 2025, demonstrating how merger-led expansion and global client partnerships are redefining project management capability across Ireland's commercial sector in 2026.

The firm's portfolio demonstrates delivery expertise across global brand requirements, where sustainability performance, workplace strategy, and cost discipline intersect.

Turner & Townsend has positioned itself to manage fit-outs that demand integrated services spanning feasibility analysis, procurement strategy, contractor coordination, and post-occupancy performance tracking, capabilities increasingly essential as corporate clients pursue net-zero workplace commitments alongside operational efficiency targets.

Judges noted the merger's impact on service breadth and market positioning. By combining Turner & Townsend's project management heritage with CBRE's real estate intelligence and occupier advisory services, the firm now offers clients consolidated oversight from site selection through to operational handover. This integration addresses a persistent challenge in commercial fit-out: fragmented accountability across design, construction, and facilities management phases that often compromises programme delivery and budget control.

"Their delivery of world-class, sustainability-driven corporate fit-outs for major global brands underscores deep expertise and industry leadership. With strong growth, unified talent, and an ambitious vision for the future, they are shaping the next generation of workplace environments," the judging panel stated.

The win reflects evolving expectations within the Fit Out Awards, where project management firms are evaluated not only on individual project success but also on their capacity to scale services, integrate sustainability expertise, and maintain delivery consistency across diverse client portfolios. Turner & Townsend's strategic positioning demonstrates how consolidation within professional services can enhance rather than dilute technical capability when executed with clear operational vision.

As the 2026 awards cycle approaches, the challenge stands: which project management firms will demonstrate equivalent strategic ambition and delivery performance across Ireland's built environment?
