The National Association of Minority Contractors (NAMC) is a full service, non-profit minority business, trade, educational and advocacy association established in 1969, to address the needs and concerns of minority contractors nationwide. Currently, NAMC’s Membership covers 50 states and the District of Columbia, and extends to more than 5,000 minority contractors. NAMC’s Membership consists of, but is not limited to, general contractors and subcontractors as regular Members, with manufacturers, suppliers, local minority contractor associations, funded technical assistance organizations, state and local government agencies, engineers, architects, attorneys, and accountants as affiliate or associate Members. The Major Corporate Partner Program Members include construction managers, large general contractors, and major purchasers of construction services.

NAMC is headquartered in Washington, D.C. As a full service Membership organization, NAMC’s headquarters’ staff is committed to the enhancement of member firms and provides Members with many programs and services. These services are intended to extend far beyond the minority construction entrepreneur. They extend to people they employ and to the communities in which they live and operate. The services provided by NAMC often involve personal assistance to individual Members.

NAMC’s “trade” activities include continuously reviewing, analyzing, and recommending changes and improvements in matters that affect the growth and stability of the construction industry. NAMC’s interests encompass financing, bonding, legislation, government regulations, union activities, workforce availability and contracting opportunities. Factors which adversely affect minority contractors are made known to the financial and business institutions as well as to the local, state and federal Legislators.

NAMC’s educational programs include workshops and seminars at the Annual Convention, Mid-Winter Conference and Fall Retreat. Workshops cover such subjects as Productivity Improvement, Developing Stronger Management Teams, Quality Control Affirmative Action, Joint Ventures, Environmental Issues, Litigation or Arbitration, Contracts’ Law, Procurement Opportunities and Showcases by the Major Corporate Partners. NAMC’s advocacy role will continue as an effective and knowledgeable voice for minority contractor development. NAMC shall work to secure a fare share of the construction market for minority contractors.

“Building Bridges-Crossing Borders” is our mandate and goal. We provide the mutual ground for sharing expertise to economically enhance both minority and majority firms. The Major Corporate Partner Program (MCP Program) is an avenue that can build bridges between minority and majority firms.

NAMC extends an invitation to join the MCP Program and work with us to exceed our goal in the year .
