CALGARY CONSTRUCTION ASSOCIATION

S T R AT E G I C O B J E C T I V E S

Calgary Construction Association

As a membership based organization we exist with the sole purpose of serving our members and our industry to the best of our ability at all times. Over the years we have done so through all the cycles and changes that have occurred in our market and we have all become stronger for the experience. Then came March 2020 and the world had to change its entire way of life overnight. Of course the CCA was no exception and the next two years provided an invaluable learning experience for us all as we sought to adapt and continue to support our CCA community through uncharted waters. The lessons have not been wasted on us so, when in early 2022 we saw the end in sight, we felt the need to re-evaluate our role in this new and emerging postpandemic context. At the same time we also felt a strong voice pulling us away from the temptation to simply restart everything that we had been doing up until March 2020. And so, in early March 2022, the board and CCA team convened for a full day in person strategy session so we could apply all that we had learned during the pandemic to our legacy as a 75+ year organization and begin to consider our role for the next 3 to 5 years and beyond. Maybe it was a post pandemic thing but this was not just any old typical strategic offsite session.

The CONSTRUCTOR 2025

We wanted to approach the whole exercise a different way than in the past so we looked to a new place for inspiration. In his book “Know What You’re For” Jeff Henderson, a former marketing exec. at the Chick-fil-A organization, describes how they had to learn that, in order to truly help a franchise owner how to understand and grow their business, they needed to stand on the customers’ side of the counter and not the operators.

Calgary Construction Association

Not only was this a powerful analogy for us to reflect on as a customer service organization, but the two fundamental questions in the book -

”What Do You Want to be Known For?” And “What Are You Known For?” - Felt like perfect lines of enquiry for such an undertaking.

We started with the ﬁrst question and the answers that we arrived at were an important viewpoint to have at the outset of this session.

“WHAT ARE WE KNOWN FOR?” AN ASSOCIATION OF LARGE ORGANIZATIONS - LARGELY GC’S Considering the fact that 18 of our 30 directors are appointed from trade and professional associations this is an interesting perspective but, nevertheless, it has prevailed for many years and, as you will see on the next page “LARGE” are actually the minority! ONLINE PLANS-ROOM SERVICE An important and valued service that is based on our heritage as a Builders Exchange and fundamental way for our members to access opportunities. LARGE EVENTS THAT I AM NOT ABLE TO ATTEND Only 15-20%. Of our member companies have been regular attendees at most historic events. MEMBERSHIP FEES THAT ARE DISCRETIONARY SPENDING

We moved from there to the second question

“WHAT DO WE WANT TO BE KNOWN FOR?” The best way to summarize all the various conversations that arose out of this question was the simple fact that we want our members to feel that -

“I CANNOT AFFORD TO NOT BE A MEMBER OF CCA” We do not say this lightly because we fully understand that for this to be true, we need to earn such a statement based on all that we do for our members. But what a call to action it is!

The CONSTRUCTOR 2025

Calgary Construction Association

S T R A T E GI C OB J E CT I V E S P h o t o Cr ed i t : E x ec u t i v e M i l l w o r k

Then we engaged in a lengthy conversation around the question -

“WHO ARE OUR MEMBERS?” Once again there were many aspects to the response and it is clear that our membership is diverse with -

Trade Contractors Manufacturers/ Distributors/ Suppliers

50% 16%

Consultants and Service Providers General Contractors + Builders - Overall 15% - 4.5% med-large size

15%

19%

But by far the biggest takeaway was the fact that across all categories -

OVER 80% OF OUR MEMBERS HAVE 10 PEOPLE OR LESS IN THE OFFICE.

This is actually the proﬁle of our industry and it is in fact the proﬁle of all kinds of businesses across Canada. We have always been a small business association comprised primarily of owner/operator businesses as members. This was a key perspective in beginning to imagine the great opportunity that lay before us as we viewed CCA and our members through this lens.

The CONSTRUCTOR 2025

Calgary Construction Association

While many of these may be familiar and are certainly representative of the work that we at CCA have always been engaged in, this unique journey during our offsite via the steps outlined previously, provided us with an added dimension along with a renewed sense of purpose related to our role in seeking to move forward with consistency and clarity as a stronger and more aligned partner with our members. In a post pandemic world and after three years of unprecedented change many of us are looking at our lives and our priorities differently and here at CCA we have fully embraced this perspective. The real work is already being done and we know that we have much more ahead of us. We hope that this 5 part perspective will align well with your needs and, as we report to you on how we are working on each of these in different ways throughout the year, you will see yourselves reflected more and more in all that we do as we strive to earn the ultimate privilege of being considered mission partners with you all in building our collective future in Calgary.

The CONSTRUCTOR 2025

EDUCATION The Construction 101 & Beyond attendee registration for the year included 34 participants, with an average of 3-4 people attending each session. This consistent engagement reflects strong interest and active participation throughout the program. The Mandatory Industry Ethics registration included 43 participants, with an average of 4-5 attendees per session. This strong turnout highlights a solid commitment to ethical practices within the industry. We had a well, attended 2024 year with multiple classes offered throughout the year. Many of the classes would include, Site Leadership, Updated ACG- Lean, CCDC 5A & 5B Construction management “Key to success” CCA's Gold Seal Certification is a national recognized standard of excellence for construction management professionals. Earned through industry experience, education and examination, Gold Seal Certification. The Gold Seal Certification program saw great success this year, with over fourty-four individuals completing the exam and earing their Gold Seal Certificate.

classroom career education, teachers often struggle to find engaging, high-quality materials that showcase the construction industry. Honour The Work fills that gap. Through our elementary program, we aim to introduce students to a wide range of construction careers—many of which they may not even know exist.

We need to fix that now. Governments and industry must come together to develop a CTIP. Let this be a first for Canada: a longterm trade infrastructure plan, developed jointly by governments and industry, with an unwavering focus on strategic national priorities and return on investment. We can generate greater value by prioritizing projects that are shovel worthy, rather than shovel ready. Implementing CTIP will result in an efficient, world-class national trade network for the movement of Canadian products — from industry, local communities, provinces, and territories — to domestic and international markets. This is good for all Canadians. Canada’s provinces and territories are on board.

UNIFIED VISION: CALGARY’S CONSTRUCTION ASSOCIATIONS

The Calgary Construction Association (CCA) stands as a pivotal organization in Calgary’s vibrant construction landscape. Founded in 1944, the CCA has championed the interests of the construction sector for eight decades, contributing significantly to the city’s development. Alongside the CCA, several associations play crucial roles in shaping Calgary’s built environment and construction ecosystem. The Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) has been active since 1960. BOMA focuses on representing the interests of building owners and managers, advocating for best practices in building management, sustainability, and operational

efficiency. By providing educational resources, networking opportunities, and advocacy, BOMA contributes to the overall improvement of building standards and practices in Calgary. Another prominent association working in alignment with the CCA is the Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD). Established in 1943, BILD represents a wide range of professionals involved in land development, home building, and renovation sectors. BILD’s mission encompasses promoting sustainable and responsible development practices, advocating for industry-friendly policies, and fostering collaboration among stakeholders. Through initiatives such as education

programs, industry events, and policy advocacy, BILD plays a pivotal role in shaping Calgary’s urban landscape and housing market. The National Association of Office and Industrial Properties (NAOIP) also collaborates closely with the CCA and other industry stakeholders. NAOIP has a rich history dating back to 1967, focusing on advancing the interests of office and industrial property developers, owners, and investors. The association advocates for conducive regulatory environments, promotes investment opportunities, and provides networking platforms for industry professionals. NAOIP’s efforts contribute to the development of quality commercial spaces, infrastructure, and economic

INTRODUCING OUR CHAMPION MEMBERS

CLASS OF 2024 & 2025! At the Calgary Construction Association, we know that our strength lies in the people who make up our industry. Our legacy is built on the dedication, leadership, and collaboration of our members—those who have shaped not only our association but the entire construction community in Calgary. In recent years, as we’ve expanded our engagement and deepened our industry connections, certain individuals have consistently gone above and beyond. These members have shown an unwavering commitment to our shared vision, making themselves an integral part of what we are building together. Their leadership, values, and passion for our industry inspire us all, and it is for this reason that we recognize them as Champion Members. This year, we are honoured to rename our Champion Award in memory of Mary Ann Smith, a recipient of last year’s award who sadly passed away last summer. Mary Ann exempliﬁed what it means to be a Champion Member—her dedication, generosity, and leadership left an indelible mark on the CCA community. Her impact continues to inspire us, and we are proud to recognize this year's Champions in her name. These individuals are more than just engaged members—they are an extension of the CCA team. Their contributions help drive our mission forward, ensuring that the future of Calgary’s construction industry remains strong, resilient, and innovative. We are proud to celebrate the Class of 2025 and thank them for their dedication to our community. Congratulations!

(PPCLA) came into full force and all projects in the province now come under this law. The Act previously only pertained to projects after legislation was passed in August 2022. Since then, the ACA has heard that there is still work to be done. Last fall, the Alberta Legislature passed the Service Alberta Statutes Amendment Act which brings in a couple of key changes: • It introduces a requirement for public works projects under the Public Works Act (PWA) into prompt payment. • Also brings a level adjudication provisions from the PPCLA into the PWA. It was with this in mind that we continue to urge the government to work with industry on the following: • Address non-compliance under the current PPCLA by forging an industry/government working group to understand the current situation. For example, government could work with industry to build awareness through mandatory notifications, potentially issued along with development and building permits. • Review the changes to make amendments to the PWA to further align it with the PPCLA. While steps have been taken to ensure the government is under similar timelines as industry, resolving disputes with government will not be the same with limits on dispute types and amounts. We have long championed prompt payment and fair contracting practices. The Association has worked closely with Calgary Construction Association, other industry partners and the provincial government to advocate for legislation that protects Alberta’s construction businesses, employees, and stakeholders. It is a continued focus in 2025.

ongoing challenges. Together with our partner local associations, ACA has engaged in productive dialogue and negotiation to address these issues. While we appreciate the government’s openness and willingness to engage with us, several key concerns remain unresolved. The primary issues ACA has highlighted include: • Payment of interest; • Risk associated with strikes; • Force majeure provisions; • Waiver of consequential loss; • Limits on liability; • Prompt payment practices; and, • Concerns regarding sole, absolute, and unfettered discretion. We encourage our members to continue sharing their experiences and concerns on these issues.

HOW CAN YOUR COMPANY REDUCE FIRST-YEAR WORKER INJURIES? Effective onboarding is key. A thorough process helps new workers understand safety protocols, expectations and job site hazards.

THINK DIFFERENTLY AND DON’T FORGET THE BASICS In times of certainty, and in situations where projects are well-defined with respect to scope, schedule, and budget, projects will experience less issues. In these cases, the contracting parties (e.g., the owner and the general contractor) can often amicably work through scope changes or impacts such as delays or disruptions – all of which generally lead to increased project costs. However, in the current landscape, there exists more uncertainty and therefore more risks, issues, and impacts. Where projects experience significant issues and impacts, these often become intertwined and more challenging for parties to resolve amicably. Add to this a situation where some of the issues today’s projects may face are arguably unforeseeable by anyone (i.e., owner; designer; general contractor; etc.). When it comes to managing risks, issues, and impacts on projects, there are many practices that can, and should, be implemented. Two practices that Revay consider important for projects to implement, especially in the wake of uncertainty, are: The CONSTRUCTOR 2025

site or soil conditions. As such, those executing projects likely need to think differently. This may include studying and considering different options, and investing more time and money in the earlier phases of projects for the following, among other activities: • I dentifying risks; •S electing contracting models; • Advancing designs; and • Developing complete and reliable scopes, schedules, and budgets. As the level of uncertainty on current and future projects may be higher than pre-2020 times, owners may consider different contracting models that provide a greater emphasis on collaboration; in particular, when it comes to planning and scheduling, budget development, constructability, material selection, procurement, and change management. Given the likelihood of external, unforeseeable, factors, it may also be pragmatic for owners to consider different commercial models for scopes that cannot be accurately estimated, or that may be subject to change or substitution, such as material. This will result in

We further add the importance of documenting changes, issues, lost time, and additional costs, individually, to more easily resolve these during projects or to facilitate the resolution of disputes later on.

BUILDING RESILIENT CITIES WITH LOW-CARBON CONCRETE By Carbon Upcycling Concrete is the backbone of modern society, shaping the spaces where we live, work, and gather. It forms the roads we travel, the homes we live in, and the stadiums that bring communities together. These structures hold the stories of our past—from Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope along Canada’s highways to Eddie the Eagle soaring off the concrete ski jumps during the 1988 Winter Games. We rely so heavily on concrete that its production is responsible for approximately 8 per cent of global CO2 emissions—nearly three times the footprint of the entire aviation industry. As Above: Low-carbon concrete sidewalk made with Carbon Up-cycling’s CUT Ash solution in Calgary. Below: Low-carbon concrete roadway made with Carbon Upcycling’s CUT Ash solution (Minnesota).

the global population grows, so will the demand for concrete, intensifying its carbon impact. By 2050, around 70 per cent of the world’s population will live in cities, up from 56 per cent today. With three-quarters of the infrastructure needed by 2050 yet to be built, there is an urgent need for sustainable construction solutions to support housing, transportation, and public spaces. Concrete will remain essential, but transitioning to lower-carbon mix designs is key to building resilient and sustainable communities for the future.

REDUCING CONCRETE’S CARBON FOOTPRINT A promising solution lies in using supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) to replace a portion of cement in concrete mixes. Cement—the binding agent in concrete—accounts for roughly 90 per cent of concrete’s carbon emissions due to the energy-intensive process of heating limestone to produce clinker, its key ingredient. SCMs reduce emissions while enhancing performance, making concrete stronger and more durable.

In Calgary, Carbon Upcycling’s technology is transforming remnants of Alberta’s coal industry into infrastructure for the future. Last year, approximately 10,000 cubic metres of CO2enhanced concrete was poured using Carbon Upcycling’s fly ash, supplied by BURNCO Rock Products Ltd. This concrete was used in residential projects and high-profile initiatives, including deployments with the City of Calgary, Telus Spark, and the Calgary Zoo. These projects are proof that Carbon

INDUSTRY COLLABORATION: THE KEY TO SCALING LOWCARBON CONCRETE Scaling low-carbon concrete solutions require bold collaboration across the construction value chain. Architects, engineers, developers, material suppliers, builders, and policymakers must work together to drive innovation, share knowledge, and create meaningful demand for sustainable materials. By prioritizing low-carbon SCMs at the earliest stages of design and planning, architects and engineers set the stage for sustainable construction to become the norm. Owners and developers play a critical role by setting procurement standards that align with sustainability commitments, sending strong market signals that drive investment in low-carbon innovation. Builders and general contractors can amplify this impact by choosing local, low-carbon materials, reducing emissions, and supporting regional economies. By partnering with companies like Carbon Upcycling, the construction industry can accelerate the transition toward a more sustainable built environment.

A NEW ERA FOR CONCRETE Industry-wide collaboration is essential to making lowcarbon concrete the new standard. Together, we can transform industrial byproducts into a foundation for resilient, future-ready cities. Just as concrete has quietly supported the progress of modern society, it can now become a catalyst for positive change. By embracing low-carbon innovation, we can build cities that are stronger, more sustainable, and ready to support the next generation of communities where life unfolds.

mons and Olympic Plaza. These projects are more than capital investments. These are commitments to building a city that is vibrant, connected, and ready for the future. None of this happens in a vacuum. From concept to completion, these projects rely on deep, trust-based relationships between City teams and the builders who bring plans to life. CCA has been a key partner in that work, championing early engagement, informed planning, and innovative problem-solving. That problem-solving spirit was on full display during last year’s feeder main crisis. When public safety required a citywide hot works ban, critical construction work across Calgary was at risk of grinding to a halt. But rather than letting bureaucracy get in the way, we got on a phone call together. Following a brainstorming session, we were able to connect CCA directly with the Calgary Fire Department. It was a solution that kept essential work moving while maintaining public safety. That’s the kind of agile, collaborative leadership Calgarians deserve. These partnerships are even more important as our population continues to grow at an unprecedented pace. With about 250 people choosing to make Calgary home every single day,

city continues to grow. Another strategic vision of mine is also becoming reality. Calgary City Council has officially approved Prairie Economic Gateway, a transformative project that will reshape our region’s economic future and position us as a leader in global trade. This is a defining moment for Calgary. With over 30,000 new jobs on the horizon and an expected $7 billion economic impact, Prairie Economic Gateway is a game changer. Projects like this are key to strengthening our position on the national and global stage. But all of it depends on having a skilled workforce ready to do the job. That’s why we must also continue investing in the people who build our city. Programs like the CCA’s Tailgate Toolkit – aimed at supporting the mental health of those who come to work in the construction industry every day – are one way the city is working with industry to support worker wellbeing. I also know that we need to do the right things to build a city where families love to live. I want to invest in our neighbourhood infrastructure – from splash pools to skating rinks and commu-
