TO: ALL MEMBERS OF SPRINGFIELD CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION

The success and growth of your Association is due to the efforts of volunteers serving on our committees. The Board of Directors will emphasize increased committee work as one of our goals. We encourage you and other members of your firm to choose one or more of these committees on which you’d like to help. Only one form has been sent to each member firm, so make sure all your employees have a chance to volunteer.

Brief Summary of SCA Committees:

• Architects Liaison Committee
  has created the Bid Date Calendar for our website and the Suggested Bidding Procedures now in use on almost all local projects, a Standardized Bid Form and the four-color “Building the Ozarks” brochure. Currently the committee is emphasizing use of the Bid Date Calendar and working on a questionnaire to identify potential problems in the bidding process. This committee meets quarterly with the Government Liaison Committee.
• Developer of the Year Committee
  chooses the recipient of each year’s award from nomination forms submitted by members. The committee also selects the Architect of the Year and Engineer of the Year when those honors are earned. The awards are presented at the annual Salute to Construction Banquet in November.
