ICV: Safety Protocols & Dress Code

by

For your safety…

The Greensboro Chamber of Commerce’s official stance is to follow CDC protocols in regards to COVID-19. CDC protocols may be found at www.cdc.gov. We respect all protocols and standards put in place by our community partners and host locations. After asking each of our hosts for their specific guidelines, we can summarize as follows:

  • When indoors please wear your masks, regardless of vaccination status, and respect social distancing guidelines, unless actively eating or drinking.
  • When outdoors, we welcome you to take off your mask, if you feel comfortable doing so.
  • We strongly recommend that masks be worn while on the buses, but will maintain social distancing by limiting bus capacity to 50%.

Wristbands will be available at check in to indicate your personal comfort level.

Dress Code:

  • Dress code for the trip is business casual/casual. We want you to be comfortable so dress for the weather and the day.
  • Please make sure to wear CLOSED TOED SHOES on Day 1. They are required for our tour of Core Technology Molding Corporation.

About

CriTek Engineering Group, P.C. is a minority owned engineering firm focused on providing professional civil and environmental engineering services to promote safe drinking water and effective wastewater management. We serve public and private clients of every size with a strong focus on the water lifecycle from the source through the tap, collection and treatment. We work with you and your design team throughout all phases of your project to ensure that deadlines are met, innovative solutions are found, cost are controlled, and expectations are exceeded. CriTek offers comprehensive engineering services for a variety of projects. Our team can provide management services. With comprehensive pipeline, pump station, and treatment plant expertise, we’ve worked on projects of all size.

Core Capabilities

Technical Review

As a completely independent engineering company not affiliated with any other groups and not selling licensed technologies, CriTek is ideally qualified to provide critical engineering evaluation before project decisions are finalized. In a technical review role, any process change requests are forwarded to our engineers for comment. This helps ensure that the client understands what the impact may be as changes and alternatives are suggested. Many times there is great pressure to hold down costs as the civil, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation details are developed. The temptation to remove seemingly inconsequential components can lead to off-spec product, inadequate throughput, high operating cost, etc. CriTek is able to help prevent such problems simply by serving as a technical reviewer.

Engineering Design

With aging infrastructure, growing regulatory requirements, and ongoing security concerns, water and wastewater utilities face increasingly difficult challenges. CriTek is a full service consulting company with the knowledge, experience, and commitment to provide such clients with total infrastructure services and solutions at a competitive cost. Our services include design and detailed engineering, pre-bid engineering support, procurement support, construction support, and as-built engineering. Having worked for both large and medium sized clients, our team has gained broad experience. We have distinguished ourselves by providing timely and quality detail engineering services with intimate industry knowledge.

Construction Management

CriTek offers pre-construction and construction management services for projects ranging from water treatment and conveyance to sewer collection and lift stations. Our capabilities can meet each owner’s specific project needs that supports the owner’s vision and preferences. Whether CriTek provides staff to support the owner’s organization or provides full construction management for projects we are committed to providing solutions to construction issues in a team-oriented environment. For our clients CriTek offers a single point of reference to avoid engineering/contractor conflicts; is committed to proactive community outreach to build trust; assists in permitting to meet regulatory concerns and requirements.

1031 Summit Ave., Suite 2W-2

About

Habitat Greensboro works toward our vision of a world where everyone has a safe and affordable place to live. We believe that owning a home is a major milestone on the road to a family’s financial success, and a key component of our community’s economic stability.

Habitat Greensboro brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. Working together, side-by-side, Habitat Greensboro staff and community volunteers help future homeowners build their future homes. Once the homes are complete, Habitat homeowners pay an affordable mortgage for their new home.

Through financial support, volunteering, or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability, and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves.

Why Greensboro?

Greensboro is one of the most generous communities in our state. Our community recognizes the importance of coming together to build strength and stability. Through affordable housing, we can create lasting economic change.

Did you know?

While volunteer opportunities have been limited over the past year, Habitat Greensboro is excited to announce our Women Build 2021.

Women Build is a national initiative to engage women in the effort to provide safe and decent homes for families in need of affordable housing. Byrecruiting, educating, and inspiring women to build, they can transform lives in their communities.

This year’s Women Build partners with Tamieka and her two sons, Christian and Cameron, to build their future home. The event launched with a livestream on March 8th, International Women’s Day. After the event, teams of women joined together to raise $85,000 in funding to support the build. On June 12th, the first wall will be raised on Tamieka’s future home, and our Women Build teams will join us for build days throughout the build process. Once Tamieka’s home is complete, everyone will celebrate their success at the home’s dedication.
