What the committee does
Relationships that open contracting opportunities.
A major aspect of the Committee’s work involves creating and maintaining relationships with major general contractors, owners, and developers. This is done to encourage the utilization of RHCA members and support small, minority, and women-owned contractors, as well as to facilitate contracting opportunities among members.
The Committee is also tasked with the approval process for new initiatives, requiring all proposed positions and events to be approved by the President prior to starting any new activities.
