The Voice of Utah's Merit Shop

Welcome to the Utah Chapter of Associated Builders and Contractors.  I am Tresa Folkman, president and CEO of the Utah Chapter. 

Based on the merit shop philosophy, Associated Builders and Contractors helps members develop people, win work, and deliver that work safely, ethically and profitably for the betterment of the communities in which ABC and its members work.

Associated Builders and Contractors is the voice of the merit shop in the construction industry. We accept the responsibility for making that voice heard. We believe in the system of free enterprise and open competition.  

The core purpose of ABC is to advance and defend the principles of the merit shop in the construction industry and to provide members and their employees with an opportunity to succeed through training, networking, business strategies and relationship building.

Our core values at ABC are economic freedom within a free-market economy, with open and fair competition and diverse participants constantly striving to achieve the highest levels of personal and company performance.

Join us in building our state and our county within a free-market economy. We welcome you!
