The knowledge we provide to our members allows them to better develop their projects for greater profitability.
Networking & More Business Opportunities (w/ Corporate Members)
The UHCA mission is to promote and support our small Hispanic owned business. We do this by facilitating networking events for all our members and guests. Our networking events are held by and at partnering General Contractors, Project Owners, or Supplier locations. Our members win by developing relationships, learning about bid opportunities, and hopefully gain new work. Our partners win by meeting subcontractors to help with their diversity and workforce goals. It's a Win-Win!

The public who is in need of any of our member services can request a bid on our website from an individual type of service. Our members will receive that big request and have an opportunity to provide estimates directly.
