      March 2009, Rick Coldsnow, P.E., Former Board Member – Qualifications Based Selection (QBS), and President of Professional Engineers of Colorado presented Michael R. Fink, P.E., F.NSPE, Water Resource Engineer for the City of Fountain Utilities Department with the 2009 QBS Award for Professional Procurement Services. The awards program recognizes public and private entities that make exemplary use of the QBS selection process at the state and local levels.

     QBS is an organization that advocates the selection of professional services based on their specific qualifications and experience. QBS Colorado has developed a team of volunteer Board Members and Technical Advisors who are available to assist in developing the QBS process for consultant selection. The QBS Colorado organization is comprised of members from local chapters of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), Colorado Association of Geotechnical Engineers (CAGE), American Council of Engineering Companies of Colorado (ACEC-CO) and Professional Engineers of Colorado (PEC). The purpose of the organization is to assist Colorado public agencies and governments with the procurement of professional architectural and engineering services and to promote qualifications-based selection practices. For more information on QBS, go to http://www.acec-co.org/qbs/.



The Colorado Association of Geotechnical Engineers (CAGE) was established in 1995 by a small group of owners of geotechnical engineering firms in Colorado. This visionary group of founding members saw the need for a much greater exchange of technical and professional information between practicing geotechnical engineers, in an effort to advance the profession and to promote the public welfare.

Since CAGE was formed it has experienced steady and significant growth, with more than 120 current members from more than 60 different companies and organizations. Beyond the growth in the size of our membership, the organization has made great strides in promoting and improving the practice of geotechnical engineering in Colorado.
CAGE is proud to be associated with ASFE as a Regional Organization (RO). Our affiliation with ASFE expands the benefits and resources available to CAGE members, and helps our members stay involved with and informed of emerging regional and national issues and trends.

CAGE’s contributions to the profession have included the hosting of regular luncheon meetings with guest speakers, sponsoring local geotechnical seminars, establishing committees to evaluate and respond to various geotechnical issues, issuing several publications, and developing Geotechnical Study Guidelines For Light Commercial and Residential Buildings in Colorado. In addition, CAGE has promoted collegial interactions between members and practitioners in related fields of geology, as well as civil and
structural engineering.
