Association of America (CMAA) and XD attended
CMAA national conference to assess its
membership, programs and organization.
Currently, GSA, Postal Service and DHS are the
primary government agencies belonging to CMAA. - CMAA is focused on construction management and
has education and training programs and a
certification program that appears to be relevant
to DOD programs and sustaining member companies
supporting DOD programs. - CMAA has developed an annual survey of owners and
CM companies. It would like to have SAME public
agency and sustaining members participate in the
