Associated Builders & Contractors (ABC) of Wisconsin is the association of choice among merit shop contractors. The nearly 900 ABC of Wisconsin member firms perform over $4 billion in construction services each year and employ 35,000 people. Nationally, there are more than 23,000 members in more than 80 Chapters.

ABC helps members grow, whether they are large international subcontractors or small general contractors. ABC works hard to ensure merit contractors can compete freely in the marketplace. The association provides a common bond for all types of contractors who work to promote open competition and a construction industry where contracts are not awarded simply because of labor affiliation. ABC not only helps build better companies, but build better lives.
