2024 was a milestone year for CM Labs, as the company won numerous awards and gained even more recognition for the quality of its solutions.
CM Labs Simulations, the leading vendor for simulation-based training solutions, celebrated a banner year in 2024, earning multiple awards and accolades for its research, products, and even its company culture.
CM Labs earned an Innovative Iron Award for its Intellia Mini Excavator Training Pack, which launched in September 2024. Noted as a “game-changer for training operators safely and efficiently,” the all-new training pack was the first of its kind on the market and remains the only dedicated mini excavator simulation training solution in the industry.
Lift and Access also celebrated CM Labs’ products, awarding it with a LLEAP Gold Award in the Aftermarket Support Products & Services category. CM Labs earned the award for another recent launch: Intellia, the Intelligent Training System. Intellia, another first of its kind in the industry, is a suite of interconnected products—including simulators, equipment training packs, and instructor support tools—that work together to provide a scalable, data-driven, and interconnected approach to operator training.
“Intellia is the next evolution of simulation training,” said Lisa Barbieri, VP of Marketing and Strategic Partnerships at CM Labs. “Simulation training used to just mean sitting at a simulator and completing exercises. Intellia makes it so much more than that by offering unparalleled data and insights into performance, providing the ability to monitor multiple simulators at once, and connecting each piece together into a singular system that can easily scale up with training needs.”
In addition to these awards, CM Labs made Construction Executive’s list of Top Construction Technology Firms™, marking its second year in a row to do so. Within the ports market, CM Labs was also singled out, with ICHCA International highlighting it as an entrant for its centerpiece TT Club Innovation in Safety Award.
In addition to its industry awards, CM Labs also gained recognition for its commitment to employee wellbeing and satisfaction. In 2024, CM Labs became Great Place to Work Certified™, earning the coveted distinction with 90% of employees agreeing that CM Labs is a great place to work—a significantly higher approval rating than the 60% rating of an average Canadian company.
“Our team is the driving force behind our innovation and success,” said Barbieri. “We wouldn’t be the company we are today without the hard work, brilliant insights, and commitment to quality that our team has. It’s why this designation means so much to us; we work hard to make our team feel valued.”
One CM Labs employee—Joe Hewlett, a Senior Software Developer at CM Labs—also won an award. Hewlett, alongside Chantal Hutchison of McGill University, won the Paper of the Year award from The Journal of Computational and Nonlinear Dynamics. Their paper, titled "Wavelet-Based Methods to Partition Multibody Systems With Contact in Dynamic Simulation," offered groundbreaking new insights in the field of simulation. It joined the over 300+ research papers that have been published with CM Labs’ support and involvement throughout the company’s long history.
