Michael Barnes, Publisher of High-Profile Monthly
Welcome, new readers! If you discovered this issue of High-Profile Monthly (HP) from MEDED Boston, a promotional mailing, or as an association free sample, I am sure you will recognize many of the names and projects covered here. You are also invited to choose from the full range of communicative methods available for computer or phone in the future. At www.high-profile.com you will find the HP blog to have news posted since we published April 1. HP’s blog also holds additional details to many of the articles inside this issue.
For our regular readers who may have noticed that “Multi-Residential” was announced as an April focus, but listed in the HP calendar as May, it will run in May as originally scheduled. We
apologize for any confusion, and remind you that every issue of HP has a section on multi-residential facilities.

DCAMM “All In” Online
DCAMM now requires exclusive submission of bids solely through DCAMM’s E-Bid Room at www.bidexpress.com/businesses/10279/home. No hard copy bids will be accepted. According to DCAMM, its E-Bid Room has been operating successfully for many months, and feedback from industry users has been very positive. The efficiencies and associated cost savings for contractors in obtaining bid documents and submitting bids on DCAMM construction projects electronically are significant. There is no cost to potential bidders for utilizing DCAMM’s E-Bid Room.
