BAM scored at least 4.5 out of 5 in every category, including environment, appearance, respect, safety and being a good neighbour.
The CCS inspectors highlighted the company's waste management efforts, which have seen 95% of waste currently diverted from landfill.
Awareness of wildlife was also complimented, with a kestral nesting in an adjacent building.
Charitable and community work has included weekly five-a-side football with proceeds donated to Birmingham Children's Hospital.
A windshield fitted to the 18 storey main tower cuts down on noise transmission and protects privacy from neighbouring student accommodation.
