About Us

Our Charter with CMAA states:

The primary purpose of the CMAA Regional Chapters program are to extend the reach of the national organization through the active involvement of the individual members at the local level and to expand the benefits of CMAA membership for those residing in areas that have adequate members and interest to support a local chapter interest.

The objectives of the chapters themselves are defined in the Standard Regional Chapter Bylaws. These include objectives, which are intended to further the Mission of CMAA:

“To promote and enhance leadership, professionalism, and excellence in managing the development and construction of projects and programs."

Regional Objectives:

1. Promoting and supporting the purposes and objectives of CMAA in the local design and construction community
2. Promoting and encouraging the growth of CM and the improvement of the CM practice
3. Promoting CM through relationships with academic institutions and student organizations
4. Providing regional activities for CMAA members.

Through these objectives SAC, and all other regional chapters, become an integral part of the Vision for the Organization:

“To be the recognized authority in managing the development and construction of projects and programs."

Our Goals:

• Sponsoring the development and administration of the CM Certification Program to promote practitioner competency and enhance the status and recognition of professional construction management. Nationally, CMAA has almost 1,000 construction professionals who have become Certified Construction Managers, with more individuals in various stages of candidacy for this exciting program. The program is rigorous, requires commitment, and everyday is becoming more valued by those we serve.
• Setting and promoting standards of professional construction management practice.
• Developing comprehensive and coordinated model forms of agreement for implementing CM as a project delivery management program.
• Advocating and protecting the interests of the industry in the legislative, regulatory, and judicial arenas of government at the federal, state and local levels and among related industry organizations.
• Providing industry-wide leadership on key issues, such as qualifications-based procurement of professional management services, professional liability insurance, safety, and professional practice ethics.
• Conducting educational seminars, forums, and conferences and fostering research in professional management disciplines which advance construction management practice.
• Promoting the services of the Association's corporate members through referrals to owners and by providing a network of professional business contacts and information resources.
