The NRMCA Promotion Committee is pleased to announce that Zach Rich of Silvi Concrete and Andrew Marks of the Puget Sound Concrete Specification Council (PSCSC) will receive 2016 NRMCA promotion awards on April 12 at the Annual Convention in San Diego. Rich will receive the Promoter of the Year Award which recognizes outstanding concrete promotion contributions by an employee of one of NRMCA’s Producer members. His noteworthy accomplishments over many years of excellent service to our industry include conversion of more than 1.6 million square feet of planned asphalt projects to concrete during 2013/2014; specifier outreach efforts that added several hundred thousand square feet of additional parking lot business in 2015 and three semesters as a concrete adjunct professor at the New Jersey Institute of Technology’s Concrete in Management (CIM) Program.

Andrew Marks will be presented with the Affiliate Promoter of the Year Award for noteworthy concrete promotion contributions by an employee of one of NRMCA’s affiliate partner organizations. Mark’s accomplishments with PSCSC include two projects now moving forward following years of effort: Port of Tacoma Road and the Logistics NW Building, including concrete floors, walls and parking areas. These two projects alone represent more than 24,000 cubic yards of concrete, with Mark’s successful projects for PSCSC approaching 850,000 square yards in total.
