ABC of Alabama Receives National Award

ABC of Alabama was recently informed that it has been awarded an Excellence in Association Management Award.

The specific recognition was in regards to ABC of Alabama's Facilities Directors & Constructors Conference. “The response from our membership, as well as facilities directors across the state has been unprecedented,” said ABC of Alabama President Jay Reed. “This event has allowed us to not only ensure ABC members' capabilities to perform work on campuses its highlighted, but it has also opened a dialogue between facilities directors and contractors to better the construction process.”

The second annual Facilities Directors & Constructors Conference was actually requested by the facilities directors.

The award will be presented at ABC’s Leadership Conference in Ft. Lauderdale on March 3.

While the chapter is receiving this recognition, plans are already underway for the third annual conference, which will be at the
Renaissance Montgomery on September 21 and 22. “The big opportunity here is not only for general contractors but also subcontractors, architects, engineers and vendors to showcase their capabilities to decision makers,” said ABC of Alabama's 2016 Chairman of the Board Randall Curtis. “Our association is committed to increasing opportunities for merit shop contractors, and this event certainly accomplishes just that.”
