Benefits
Advocacy/Government Benefits:
American Subcontractors Association California Inc. (ASAC) is your eye on the government. We’re watching to make sure laws that affect you as subcontractors are in YOUR favor.
This is the group that successfully sponsored Notice of Completion legislation and more recently helped to secure 5% retention on public works projects (SB 293) and indemnification reform (SB 474)!
Directed by the ASAC Government Relations Committee and Board of Directors, a professional Legislative Advocate works on behalf of subcontractors and suppliers in Sacramento.
His job is to represent you and your needs to the state legislature, and protect your interests.
Not everyone enjoys the political arena, and not everyone can participate – ASAC provides people who can and will take on that responsibility for you, so you can tend to your business.
This year the association is concentrating on Public Private Partnerships (3P’s) so subcontractors and suppliers rights to payment on this new type of project will be protected by payment and performance bonds. This issue is a complicated one, and we are fortunate to have very competent people on our Government Relations Committee who can speak for subcontractors and suppliers at the various meetings being held as the legislation moves through the political process.
GROUP PURCHASING:
Together American Subcontractor Association California members have buying power! Participating in the group programs may save you more money than you pay in dues!
State Fund Workers Compensation Insurance
Employee Benefit Plans/Health/Medical Insurance
General Liability Insurance
NETWORKING: ASAC brings subcontractors and suppliers together, because no company is in this industry alone.
All members are welcome at ASAC quarterly meetings, held mainly via teleconference. These meetings are where decisions are made that affect you as subcontractors and suppliers – issues are discussed and plans are made for legislative work. From these meetings come the proactive government relations stances taken by ASA California and promoted before the construction industry and the state legislature.
EDUCATION:
You can’t run your business without knowing the latest laws and methods. ASAC can help keep you and your employees informed.
Members receive the newsletter “ASA/California” from the state association along with timely faxes and news items. The website, www.asacalif.com has information to help your company stay connected and up to date.
MARKETING:
The Board of Directors of ASAC has as its goal the marketing of ASAC and its Members.
The on-line Membership Directory maintained by ASAC includes members’ names and addresses, as well as their trades. This directory is available to all, and is used by other ASAC members, as well as the general contractors looking for subcontractors and suppliers in California.
This Membership Directory offers the chance to insert your logo as an eye-catching addition, to bring attention to your company name and trade.
As we gain name recognition for ASAC, we’ll help promote your company as well.
Phone the ASA California office toll-free at 888-310-2722
for more information about any of these benefits.
“THANK YOU”, WACA AND URCA, FOR GOVERNMENT RELATIONS GRANTS
In addition to the funding the grants provide, ASAC also appreciates the groups for backing ASAC’s efforts by writing letters, making phone calls, and spreading the word when the issues need support.
WACA (Wall and Ceiling Alliance WACA) formerly known as NCDCA (Northern California Drywall Contractors Association) has been a supporter of ASAC since 1990 when the group joined the Bay Area Chapter and donated funding to ASAC. Gwynda Downing of member company James R. Downing Inc., stepped right in to the fray as she helped lead the successful effort to amend the Business and Professions Code relating to contractors and prompt payment laws. She and ASAC were also instrumental in getting Change of Venue laws on the books, making contractors who work in California file their suits in California instead of their home state.
For the fifth year in a row, the Union Roofing Contractors Association has made a sizable donation to ASAC, with the intent of supporting ASAC legislative efforts at Indemnification Reform and Retention Payment Reform.
URCA has been a member of the ASA – LA-Orange County Chapter since 2005. Thanks to Ron Johnston, Ph.D., the association’s Executive Director, and to the individual URCA members who encourage their Board of Directors to make this monetary gesture.
