Awards won in the past 3 years for innovative designs from nationally recognized organizations including the salient features of the design 5. Capability for electronic product delivery (e-mail, FTP site, internet access, etc) 6. Professional capacity and resources to accomplish work with accelerated turnarounds. Specifically whether the surge capability is in-house or subcontracted. 7. Demonstrated knowledge and application of sustainable design principles, including prescribing the use of recovered materials and achieving waste reduction and energy efficiency in site, facility, and landscape design. 8. Volume of DOD projects previously accomplished in last two years 9. Accessibility to Logan International Airport in Boston and John F. Kennedy Airport in New York City Only firms with AutoCAD Computer Aided Design and Drafting capability and Microsoft Office software suite capabilities will be considered. Responses must be postmarked within 30 days of the date of this issue. The Standard Industrialization Classification code (SIC) is: 8712. Cover letters and unnecessarily elaborate brochures or other presentations beyond those sufficient to present a complete and effective response are not desired.
