Track Tec Construction, a Track Tec Group company, received the Ernest Malinowski Award (“ERNEST”) from the Association of Engineers and Technicians of Communication of the Republic of Poland (SITK RP) on the occasion of the company’s 10th anniversary and in recognition of its contributions to SITK RP. The award was presented during the opening of the 24th Scientific and Technical Conference “Modern Technologies and Management Systems in Rail Transport” (NOVKOL’25), held on 3–5 December in Zakopane. The event was organized by the Krakow branch of SITK RP.

Over its ten years of operation, the company has completed numerous strategic projects, strengthening its position as an industry leader. The ERNEST Award was received on behalf of the company by its President, Marita Szustak, during the opening of the NOVKOL’25 conference.
“We are extremely pleased with this distinction awarded to our company by an organization that brings together experts working in our industry. The company’s 10th anniversary is a moment when we can look back at what we have already achieved, but also an opportunity to build strategic development plans for the future. The ERNEST Award is an honour for us, but also a commitment to continuous growth and setting new, ambitious goals,” said Marita Szustak, President of Track Tec Construction.
