After two decades of devoted service to MCAA members, Tim Moormeier, President of U.S. Engineering Company Holdings and Co-Chair of the WebLEM committee, decided to step down from his role at the committee’s fall meeting on October 15. During Tim’s tenure, the WebLEM underwent significant transformations. The initial pivotal change occurred in 2008 when the WebLEM transitioned from a paper-based format to a digital one, accessible solely via the web, hence its name, WebLEM. This marked the end of the 4-inch thick, 10-pound yellow binder era.
Tim was unwavering in his commitment to enhancing the WebLEM, focusing not only on improving the user experience but also streamlining the administrative aspect for committee members. In this pursuit, Tim pioneered the next generation of the WebLEM, known as WebLEM+Plus, which is exclusively available to MCAA members as a valuable membership benefit.
In addition to Tim’s pioneering leadership in the transition of the Labor Estimating Manual from paper, to digital, to software, Tim has provided countless hours of value to MCAA members, manufacturers, and staff over the years. Tim has been a crucial member of the committee in the expansion of the LEM through additional labor values, in providing clarifications and updates, in bringing on new committee members and training those committee members in a devoted effort to keep the LEM reflective of new technologies, markets, and processes.
Tim’s dedication to excellence and his selfless contributions have played a pivotal role in shaping WebLEM into what it is today. MCAA is profoundly appreciative of Tim’s unwavering hard work, visionary leadership, and the countless hours he devoted to both MCAA and its members. Tim’s wisdom and guidance will be sincerely missed.
