The Birmingham Construction Industry Authority (BCIA) is a voluntary program established in 1990 as part of The Birmingham Plan. The BCIA aims to address the under-utilization of Minority and Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (MBE/DBE) in the economic growth of Birmingham, Alabama. They offer certification, business counseling, and technical assistance support services to MBEs and DBEs, and establish voluntary goals for minority and disadvantaged business participation in construction projects in the Greater Birmingham area.
The BCIA's vision is to create MBE/DBE business success in the construction industry. They strive to remove barriers, promote community awareness, and foster a thriving and diversified construction marketplace. The BCIA also works towards promoting the construction industry as a viable career option for minority students and provides assistance through scholarships and expanded employment opportunities. They certify and monitor the development of bona fide firms owned and controlled by qualified minority and disadvantaged individuals.
