About Us

Welcome to the Edmonton Construction Association

The Edmonton Construction Association (ECA) was incorporated in 1931 and is today the largest Non-Profit Construction Association serving the Commercial, Institutional, and Industrial Construction Industry in Western Canada.

ECA exists to advance the construction industry, through effective representation and service to our 1,100+ member firms. We are a member-driven organization founded on integrity, leadership, quality, and value.

ECA members fall into four classifications: General Contractors, Trade Contractors, Manufacturers & Suppliers, and Associate Members (including Architects, Engineers, and related professional services). ECA members are represented provincially by the Alberta Construction Association (ACA) and federally by the Canadian Construction Association (CCA).

At the Edmonton Construction Association, we are builders. As builders of infrastructure, our members create the buildings, roads, sewers, and landscapes that grow our community. We are builders of people, as we provide educational and training opportunities to our members. We are builders of relationships, between our members through social and networking events and as advocates for our industry in government and business circles. Finally, we are builders of procurement opportunities, as we provide unparalleled access to comprehensive tender information, both public and private.

Our goal at the ECA is to provide member value with a strong focus on our Four Pillars: Procurement, Collaboration, Networking, and Education. ECA staff and the Board of Directors work hard to ensure that members and all stakeholders are engaged to advance our industry.
