Industry Day - Runway Concrete Removal Conference

The Department of the Air Force is hosting an Industry Day at Edwards Air Force Base, California, on February 23, 2012, focused on the removal of approximately 700,000 tons of stockpiled concrete at the base. The event will begin with an informational meeting followed by a tour of the stockpiled materials, providing attendees an opportunity to assess the scope of the concrete removal project firsthand. The Air Force is seeking input from a broad range of industry participants, including small businesses, professional organizations, and vendors with innovative solutions, tools, or technologies that could assist with this effort. At this stage, the government has not allocated funding for the concrete removal, and the purpose of the gathering is to gather ideas and explore potential approaches that could make the project feasible. The solicitation associated with this event is identified as FA9301-12-RFI-0001 and falls under the NAICS code 562910, which covers materials recovery. Interested parties are encouraged to contact Shari C. Trigg for more information and to participate in this early-stage engagement aimed at generating effective and innovative solutions for the base’s material removal needs.
