Construction Quality Management for Contractors The Sacramento District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in partnership the Associated General Contractors (AGC) San Diego Chapter, offers the Construction Quality Management for Contractors Class (CQM-C) on a monthly basis.
The mutual goal of the Contractor and the Government is to achieve a quality product, executed safely, on time, and within budget.
