Scope of Work for IFCC Project: Spring Back CO
The goal of the Innovate Fort Collins Challenge award is to provide funding for the expansion
and growth of Spring Back North so that we can reach a greater market share than we currently
have. This award will support and fund program development and implementation of life skill
education for each of our employees through a certified counselor. In order to fully implement
the expansion we are seeking operation support for staffing and ancillary support opportunities
which include transportation assistance, computer training, hiring 2 new employees and
providing them with warehouse operations certifications. We will innovate our recycling model
with new or automated equipment purchases that will keep us market compatible and high
functioning. We are intentional in creating a workplace training program that allows our
employees the opportunity to improve their prospects for the future through education, to gain
access to transportation, to gain transferable skills and become higher functioning citizens. We
also want to continue our sustainable efforts in the reduction of the CO2 emissions that can be
attained through proper mattress recycling and reduce the carbon footprint.
