Associated Builders and Contractors of Western Washington advances the principles of free enterprise and merit in the construction industry. They provide members, their employees and the construction industry with opportunities to succeed by promoting safe, quality, sustainable construction.

ABC represents more than 300, both union and open shop, general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and industry professionals. They are the voice of the merit shop in the construction industry.

Every Monday morning members of the MCS service team volunteer 1 hour of their time for Peer to Peer training.

They don’t get paid to attend the training.

The team member that delivers the training doesn’t get paid to prepare the lesson.

Our Team is dedicated focused passion and team empowerment.

This peer to peer training is just one of the intangible ways we strive to deliver excellence to our clients.

If you haven’t experienced the difference of the MCS Service team, I invite you give us a try.

Our goal is to turn every client into another Stark Raving Fan!

Collaboration

I spent the day yesterday working with another quality mechanical contractor.

Working as a team, capitalizing on each other’s strengths, delivering exceptional value: the sky is our limit!

Our team completed an significant energy project in December of 2014.  This was the largest energy conservation project supported by Tacoma Power in all of 2014.   Since then, we have been carefully tracking the building operating expenses.  Year to date results:  We are on track to reduce operating expenses by more than $40,000 per year.  This represents a 40% reduction in HVAC expense and over 20% of total building operating expenses, including lighting and plug loads.  Now we are working on a new Premium Efficiency Project in Freemont.  This new project promises to exceed Seattle City Energy Code by 250%!
