"More time has been a request that has come up on several occasions. Delaying the bid opening for another week will help ensure we receive as many qualified bids as possible, but it will not push us back on our timeline to award the project and move forward with construction." Bid Documents, plans and addendums can be obtained at Springfield Blue Print at (219 E. Pershing) or  online at www.spfdblue.com. For further bidding information, contact project manager Nicholas Edelman at 417-864-1932.
