ABOUT CLARK CONSTRUCTION
SMALL AND DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS INCLUSION
Small businesses play a vital role in every project we build. By investing in their future, we not only strengthen our industry and our company, but also the communities we serve. Through our SDBE15 Program, Clark is committed to achieving at least 15 percent small or disadvantaged business participation on all projects - even those that don't otherwise have prescribed business requirements. With each new venture Clark undertakes, our teams work collaboratively to develop in-depth bidding and procurement strategies that extend from the pursuit phase through project delivery to ensure our subcontracting goals are met. Our successful track record on projects across the country is proof that our projects are stronger because of the diverse perspective and skills our small business partners bring to the table.
