There is an old adage that there are horses for courses. This adage could well apply to the length of Edencrete trials and the process in running their trials in the USA.
It would appear that the slow horses are running in USA. Thus the glacial pace of everything that has happened. This slow tortuous pace can easily be explained by the glacial pace in the USA in recognising that their infrastructure is in a bad state, then the slow speed of planning what to do about it by those in power, then the equally slow pace in recognising the urgency of raising and allocating the funds to do the repair work after a long time spent in reaching biparty agreement on what had to be done, then the lethargy in testing of new additives, then the very slow process of tendering of the projects, then the long breaks of just sitting around waiting for committees to look at the tenders, etc etc. I hope you get my drift. Time passes. And to the casual outsider like you, this whole USA process of getting sales (which can be shortened dramatically, if the resolve and urgency was there in those with the powers ) would appear long and convoluted and mind numbing because there are so many conflicting parties with agendas and conflicting political motives who are involved in the process.
Mr Larger, as Mr Pointydexter has pointed out in his excellent post (please read it again and understand the gist of what is being said), all the fast horses are running in NSW:
“Imo, time is still with EDE for most of the remaining infrastructure projects in Sydney. All are design and construct projects, meaning there is typically a 1-2 year design and procurement period prior to the commencement of construction. This is ample time for concrete mix design, testing and evaluation. In fact there is possibly another year or so into construction before large amounts of concrete is required.”
It would therefore appear that testing of Edencrete can be done in tandem with or after tenders, as all the competing parties are striving for excellence and financial reward. NSW infrastructure is the centrepiece of construction at the moment. Therefore you will be pleasantly surprised at what effort is being exerted by all concerned to get all the NSW infrastructure programs ( both those planned and those already in progress) done well, within budget and on time.
Many of the posters here have promoted the fallacy that Eden is only capable of taking one step at a time and that it therefore should only take one step at a time, that step being in the USA. A fallacy repeated many times by many soon appears to become a fact. It is the family's belief that with such an innovative product as Edencrete, taking two or three very large steps in different directions at the same time will give the company stability in its venture, and plenty of room to keep taking onward strides even if one of the initial three steps turns out to becoming a long drawn-out affair.
It would appear that the only thing holding back an entry into NSW is the lack of a couple of knowledgeable people to promote the Edencrete. Such people exist. Hire them. Eden does not need to be top heavy with sales people. It needs a couple of industry reputable consultants who know the product and who can deal at a board level to promote it and facilitate its sales.
Edencrete is an absolutely brilliant innovative stand-out product. It must not miss this once in a life time opportunity of being involved in these massive NSW infrastructure projects that appear to have been created just for Edencrete to prove itself.
And now it is time for us to retire for the night, so we wish you a very good night.
Blessing of the Lord
