Ready mixed concrete is evolving and we need to adapt together. NRMCA understands the challenges facing your executive and operations teams today: information overload, rising costs, and the pressure to adapt to technology and labor trends without a clear roadmap. Tackling these pivotal industry challenges in silos leads to hidden costs and missed opportunities. That's why the Business Advancement Committee is excited to launch Ready Mix Roundtables! These are small, exclusive in-person workshops (max 10 non-competing companies) designed for top executives and decision-makers to collectively discuss challenges and ideate actionable solutions. The focus is strictly educational, resulting in peer-vetted solutions you can implement immediately within your business.

NRMCA Director, Sustainability Codes and Standards, Tiffany Reed-Villarreal, P.E., recently participated in the Carbon Progress Summit held at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. The summit convened leaders from the cement, concrete and steel industries along with construction stakeholders to highlight measurable progress in carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions reduction and material circularity across the construction materials value chain.

NRMCA’s Dr. Julian Mills-Beale, director of civil/structural codes and standards, will participate in the summit.
