We have now marked our second anniversary with COVID-19 and the challenges that it has placed on the construction industry as a whole. We are pleased to see another year with new members joining AMBA throughout the past 12 months.
Our newest member company is GVN Structures, based out of Redcliff, AB. GVN have over 30 years of proven experience as a design-build contractor specializing in both wood and steel building systems.
Earlier this past year we also welcomed Kingspan and Iron Sun Construction to the association as well.
Currently, our Membership list includes 53 member companies including erectors, contractors and suppliers. As a Board we continue to explore opportunities that will enhance the benefits of being a member of AMBA. We are currently working on a potential new member classification for Consultants who are actively involved in servicing the Steel Building System community.
AMBA was originally formed around the creation of the MBSE specialist and we continue to represent our members as an association to preserve that designation as a professional body of skilled and competent Steel Building Erectors.
Don’t forget to take advantage of our AMBA newsletters and our social media to spread the word throughout our industry about your company and its accomplishments. Maybe you have someone new or someone retiring who deserves an industry shout out. Project profiles or interesting stories are always welcome. Linda Giesinger has taken on the role of compiling newsletter and social media content. You can reach her at linda.giesinger@shaw.ca with articles or photos or announcements.
We want to encourage every member to consider what they could offer to either “What’s New” or “Project Profiles”. Linda would welcome any submissions and we look forward to including these not only in our quarterly newsletters but also on our website and social media platforms.
As always, if you know of anyone working in the industry who you think should be a member, please pass their information on to any of the Board members so that we can encourage them to join. There is strength in numbers and we want to continue to grow the Association for the future generations of MBSE specialists.
