C & A Construction Company, Inc.

C & A Construction is a Chicopee general contractor whose paper trail runs through two very different registries. The first is the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office, which has the company certified three ways — Women Business Enterprise, Portuguese Business Enterprise and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise — all currently active under certification 19930216, with the WBE and PBE terms running to August 2029. Those are verified against the state's own registry, and they carry weight on public and institutional projects where certified firms are required. The second entry is federal. Violation Tracker, which compiles government enforcement records, lists an OSHA action against C & A Construction Company dated 21 April 2023, with a $5,358 penalty for a workplace safety or health violation. One agency action with a modest penalty, now three years old, is worth raising rather than treating as a verdict — but it is a safety matter, and safety matters are worth asking about directly. Everything here comes from registries rather than from customers. Before hiring, ask for two or three recent job references you can call, ask what changed on site after the 2023 OSHA action, and get insurance certificates and a written scope in hand before anyone starts work.
