The Iowa Concrete Paving Association (ICPA) has hired AOE

AOE is excited to have been selected to lead the Iowa Concrete Paving Association (ICPA) strategic planning initiative. Drew Burns, Director of Client Strategy at AOE, will lead this project, building on the successful strategic planning collaboration he recently completed with the Iowa Ready Mixed Concrete Association in 2024.


Both organizations play a vital role in promoting the safe and effective use of concrete, and together they are advancing Iowa’s reputation as the “Concrete State.”


The strategic planning process will include developing membership surveys, conducting interviews, preparing environmental scan reports, and in-person meeting facilitation. We’ll work closely with ICPA to craft a comprehensive plan—delivered in a dynamic PowerPoint format—that reflects input from members, customers, and stakeholders. By fostering collective buy-in, we aim to develop impactful strategies, goals, and action plans for the organization to implement.

Marketing Committee Chair, National Steering Committee

"The 2023 Concrete Industry Management (CIM) Auction at World of Concrete shattered all previous records! Our partners at AOE were essential in helping the National Steering Committee promote the Auction. For more than 15 years, we’ve counted on AOE to help support our public relations, social media and marketing efforts to promote the Auction and the CIM program. The AOE team was, and continues to be, an important part of our success."
