TESTIMONIALS
“This event and atmosphere create an ideal environment for the right individuals to collaborate and formulate plans that support each other’s business requirements. All participants come well-prepared to strategize on how we can consistently enhance value in both current and future solutions. Undoubtedly, these two days stand out as among the most productive moments we share with our partners.”
Mike Kirby, Director of JSS Mechanical & Plumbing Trades for MILWAUKEE TOOL and MCAA Converge Chair
“Roughly sixty percent of most mechanical and plumbing projects consist of material, equipment, subcontracts, and other soft costs. Through tactical meetings with member Manufacturers and Suppliers, MCAA Converge provides a platform for contractors to gain advantages on their projects through the implementation of emerging technologies, strategic planning, and negotiation. Finding ways to reduce costs and increase productivity through this event can significantly decrease labor risk and increase margins on current projects. Advantages gained at Converge could also be the difference between winning and losing future projects.”
Rick Gopffarth, V.P. Marketing/Business Development, Dynamic Systems
