Additional technology opportunities

Collins, vice president of procurement and materials management, said in a recent video presentation. “It allows businesses the time they need to develop partnerships to effectively participate as subcontractors and prime contractors.”
According to Page 5 of the planning document, the airport has the following “high-tech procurement” opportunities listed in the fourth quarter, September to December.
