MOA Earns SMPS Colorado Marketing Excellence Award for Project Blue Moon Pursuit

SMPS Colorado’s Marketing Excellence Awards brought together the people behind the work that keeps the AEC industry moving forward — marketers, business developers, firm leaders, and creative professionals from across the industry.

It was a great reminder that so much of what shapes successful projects happens long before construction begins. The strategy, positioning, storytelling, coordination, and relationship-building that happen behind the scenes all play a role in earning trust and creating opportunities.

We’re proud that MOA ARCHITECTURE received an MEA for our project pursuit marketing for Project Blue Moon, an $80M pursuit that required a major team effort. The pursuit included a $200K custom proposal and interview approach investment, all developed within a demanding timeline.

Awards like these recognize the work that often goes unseen — the people responsible for first impressions, client experience, and the strategic thinking behind successful pursuits.

Thank you to SMPS Colorado for bringing this community together and giving everyone the opportunity to connect face to face and celebrate the work being done across the industry. Brandon Daigle, Kristen Chapman, and Marcus Appleby, AIA, NCIDQ were excited to represent MOA, reconnect with colleagues, and catch up with so many industry peers, including Tara Landen, Nick Landen, Zach Wagner, Dena Wyatt, Stacey Richardson, CPSM, Ely Hemnes, Shelli Foth, Jaime Clark Miles, Josh Miles, and Teena Bergstrand, among so many others. Congrats to all of this year's nominees and winners!

At the end of the day, this industry runs on relationships and trust.
