California Construction Contracting Program

Welcome to the OCSBDC's California Construction Contracting Program (CCCP) Module 5 web page. These FREE courses are designed to provide attendees with information on strategies to effectively market their firm's capabilities to Prime Contractors bidding on CalTrans Capital Construction projects and other Public Works projects.

Courses 1 and 2 of this module are designed to provide attendees with first hand strategies to effectively market their firm’s capabilities to Prime Contractors bidding on Caltrans Capital Construction Projects and other Public Works Projects. These two courses also provide attendees an opportunity to meet with a panel of Prime Contractors who have successfully bid and performed on Caltrans work. The panel members are prepared to review in depth what they expect from subcontractors, from the pre-bid stage to actual project execution and closeout.

Course 3 will provide attendees an opportunity to effectively navigate the Caltrans website to identify upcoming contracting opportunities, Project and Bidding Specifications and associated Bid Conferences and Job-Walk Dates.
