On August 16, 2010, DK Haney Roofing began work on Colorado Independent School District's (ISD) roofing repair and renovations project. The project is scheduled to be completed by the end of October 2010 and will include six school and administrative buildings, including Kelley Elementary School, Colorado Middle School, Hutchinson Elementary School, Hutchinson Administrative Building, Wallace High School, and Colorado City High School.
As a member of the Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS/TAPS), Colorado ISD was able to eliminate some of the district's project costs by avoiding the bidding process. Additional project funding was also generated through hail damage claims. In the end, Colorado ISD saved an estimated $800,000.
"In this day of trying to control costs, purchasing cooperatives, such as TIPS/TAPS have become very important to school districts. The cost savings eliminated through TIPS/TAPS can then be used directly in the classroom or for some other districts need," commented Ronnie Kincaid, Executive Director of Region 14 Education Service Center. "DK Haney Roofing is a qualified vendor that TIPS/TAPS members can utilize. I have used DK Haney Roofing, and I have been very pleased with the workmanship, quality materials, and the services I have received from the entire organization."During July 2010, DK Haney Roofing, a local roofing company in Fort Worth, Texas was awarded the Colorado ISD roofing project. DK Haney Roofing is experienced in all types of commercial, industrial, and residential roofing systems and are also recognized as one of the top Duro-Last® Roofing contractors in the United States. Duro-Last® is the recommended roofing material for the Colorado ISD project.
