Construction Industry Center

The cic brings organization and cohesiveness to the Construction Industry by providing a central location for contractors to find opportunities to bid projects. We save time and effort for architects, engineers, government agencies, etc. By publicizing their projects to a much broader audience. Cic provides a library of blueprints (that are available to contractors to be copied) and acts as a central location for prime contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers, etc. To connect to provide for optimal competitive pricing on a given Construction project. This benefits the Industry and the public by constructing better buildings for less money.

Recognizing the need for a continued strong workforce in the Construction Industry, cic commits up to $6,000/year in scholarship monies to assist and encourage young people in our communities who have chosen to study a field in the Construction Industry. Additionally, cic works cooperatively with other organizations to provide educational opportunities in the Construction Industry.

Cic provides information on competitive bidding opportunities. Cic researches and compiles information on bidding opportunities (private, public, governmental) and disseminates it back out to the membership through a weekly publication. The weekly bulletin is also used to notify the Industry of classes, seminars, training, etc. The sd department of revenue utilizes the cic weekly bulletin to monitor out-of-state firms receiving Construction contracts within the state so they are being made to comply with the same regulations as in-state contractors. The oglala sioux tribe tero office makes use of the publication to monitor Construction projects on the reservation for proper employment practices.
