J. Edward Sauter Receives Prestigious Robert D. Sawyer Award for 2012



Mt. Vernon, IA – During it’s Annual Convention in Acme, Michigan, J. Edward Sauter (top right photo), current Executive Director for the Concrete Foundations Association (CFA) – a North American association dedicated to improving the quality and acceptance of cast-in-place concrete foundations –  was awarded the Robert D. Sawyer Distinguished Service Award.

 The Annual Convention was held July 25-27, 2012 at the Grand Traverse Resort.

 Previous recipients Barry Herbert (middle left photo) of Herbert Construction (2009) and Scott Smith (lower right photo) of MPW Construction Services (2010) recognized Sauter as this year’s recipient.

“Ed’s devotion to the CFA is perhaps most apparent when you look at what the organization was when he became Executive Director twenty years ago”, states Barry Herbert. 


“The association was in severe disarray, money was scarce, membership was declining, and the continuing existence of the CFA was in question.  His professionalism became immediately apparent, and in the next few meetings it became evident that he was the right choice for the job.  Ed’s commitment and hard work had the association back on its feet and thriving in no time.”
