Centex Homes Earns 'Most Admired Big Builder' Award From Peers for
Second Consecutive Year Homebuilder Also Repeats Top Honors for
Leadership, Management, Operational Excellence and Efficiency in
Nationwide Industry Survey DALLAS, Dec. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/
-- Centex Homes' peers have named the residential construction
company its industry's "Most Admired Big Builder" for a second
straight year, according to a national survey. The Dallas-based
national homebuilder earned this title and completed a near clean
sweep of the 2004 APEX Awards, winning top honors among the
nation's biggest homebuilding companies for: -- leadership and
management, -- operational excellence and efficiency, -- delivering
affordable housing, and -- providing employees with training and
development programs. The APEX Awards are presented by Hanley Wood,
the leading business-to- business media company serving the housing
and construction industry. The awards are based on the results of
an online survey of the residential construction industry's 100
largest companies. Andy Hannigan, chairman and chief executive
officer of Centex Homes, said, "We are truly honored that our
colleagues in residential construction have expressed such high
esteem for us two years in a row. It is especially gratifying for
our more than 7,000 U.S. employees to know that their work is
regarded so highly by the people they compete with every day." The
survey was conducted in September for Hanley Wood by a third-party
survey organization. In the 2004 awards' only other category --
innovative product and design -- survey respondents placed Centex
Homes second. In addition to being named "Most Admired Big Builder"
last year -- the first time the awards were ever distributed --
Centex Homes also received top 2003 APEX Award honors for
leadership and management and for operational excellence and
efficiency. The APEX Awards were created to help elevate the
homebuilding profession as an industry offering opportunities for
talented business, financial, sales and marketing professionals.
