Testimonials

"NUCA of Nebraska has improved my business through training opportunities, exposure to new vendors, and social interaction with competitors in a non-competitive environment. If the only time you see other contractors is on bid day, you will never develop the relationships that can benefit your company." - Ryan Kinning, Penro Construction Company

NUCA of Nebraska provides to the Utility Industry training; networking; the opportunity to meet and discuss with your peers the issues affecting our industry; and the opportunity to address issues through political advocacy. There are also many opportunities to socialize and build relationships with other contractors in the industry. NUCA is the Association that fits our needs as a utility contractor!" - Edward D. Watts, Watts Electric Company
