CCA benefits: Why should my company / municipality use a Certified Contract Administrator?

A Certified Contract Administrator is an MMCD contract administration expert. Certified Contract Administrators (CCAs) voluntarily undertake a rigorous certification process through MMCD Association, which includes providing proof of education, practical experience, and professional references, a 16-hour training course, and writing a certification examination – all to ensure a fair process for all parties involved in completing your contract.

Owners hire CCAs to:

• Reduce management time commitments, leading to lower direct and overhead costs;
• Minimize disputes and unwarranted claims for extra money and time to completion;
• Improve good will among owners, Contract Administrators and contractors;
• Reduce contract costs through widely accepted and efficient techniques, fair to all concerned and legally robust.

Contractors hire CCAs because they:

• Show fairness and timeliness in dealing with all site related, compensation and other issues;
• Guarantee certainty and consistency in administrative procedures during the contract and consistent fair treatment in each contract
