HOUSTON, TX- NAMC PRESENTS: BUSINESS READY LUNCH & LEARN - THE AI POWERED CONTRACTOR
2026-06-10 11:00 - 13:00 | HCC Southeast Center for Entrepreneurship, 6815 Rustic Street, Houston, TX, 77087, United States
At NAMC, we believe preparation creates opportunity. We do not just wait for luck — NAMC provokes luck for our members by helping them get ready, stay ready, and step confidently into the opportunities they deserve.
The AI Powered Contractor Presented by Brad Walker & Monique Carlisle | Midasweb
Getting business ready with AI is no longer optional. It’s how the contractors winning work today are pulling ahead.
Running a contracting business demands more than field expertise. You’re the estimator, project manager, administrator, and salesperson — often all in the same day. And regardless of how busy the job site gets, the administrative work keeps coming. Proposals. Daily reports. Client emails. Change orders. For most contractors, hours every week disappear into writing tasks that never get easier or faster.
Brad Walker and Monique Carlisle of Midasweb are AI strategists who help business owners turn AI into a real competitive advantage. At this Business Ready Lunch & Learn, they’ll show you how AI can help you write stronger bid proposals and project narratives in a fraction of the time, convert field notes into polished daily reports and RFIs, send professional communications that protect your business relationships and your contracts, and build the capability statements you need to compete for government work, set-asides, and large GC packages.
No fluff. Just practical tools built for how contractors actually work.
Whether you’re a seasoned GC looking to run a leaner operation or a subcontractor ready to sharpen your professional edge, this session was built for you. You’ll walk away with specific prompts and ready-to-use workflows you can put to work immediately — no tech background required.
NAMC – Provokes Luck for our members!

NAMC Greater Houston Chapter invites contractors across the Greater Houston area to attend the upcoming NAMC Houston Business Ready Capacity Workshop.
This practical half-day workshop is designed to help contractors move beyond registration and certification into true business readiness.
Event: NAMC Houston Business Ready Capacity Workshop
Date: June 24, 2026
Time: 8:00 AM – 2:30 PM
Location: Houston City College
Address: 3100 Main Street, Houston, Texas 77002
Registration Link: Business Ready Capacity Workshop | National Association of Minority Contractors
Registration is not readiness. Certification is not capacity.
Being registered as a vendor or certified as an MBE, SBE, DBE, or HUB is important — but it does not guarantee that your company is ready to win, perform, get paid, manage risk, document work, handle change orders, or scale successfully.
This workshop is for contractors who want to win bigger opportunities, protect their company, improve cash flow, build stronger systems, and become better prepared to meet the expectations of owners, prime contractors, lenders, bonding companies, insurers, and workforce partners.
Opportunity is coming — but opportunity favors the prepared.
Many contractors have the skill to perform the work, but struggle with the business side of construction, including contracts, insurance, bonding, financial statements, cash flow, workforce, compliance, documentation, and project controls.
This workshop will help you understand what it takes to become:
Bankable. Bondable. Insurable. Compliant. Prepared. Ready to Scale.
During this workshop, you will gain practical insight into key business readiness areas, including:

Contract review, legal risk, change orders, and payment protection
Accounting, financial statements, job costing, and tax readiness
Insurance requirements and bonding capacity
Banking relationships, access to capital, cash flow, and working capital
Workforce capacity, staffing, safety, and field supervision
Compliance, documentation, and project controls
Owner and prime contractor expectations

This workshop is designed for:

NAMC Houston members who want to strengthen their business capacity and compete for larger projects
Non-members and prospective members who want access to practical resources, relationships, and guidance
Subcontractors and small contractors who are ready to grow but need stronger systems
Minority contractors seeking greater access to public, commercial, and infrastructure opportunities
Construction-related businesses that need help with bonding, insurance, banking, compliance, workforce, and back-office readiness

You should attend because this workshop will help you identify gaps, connect with experts, and take practical steps toward becoming more competitive, more credible, and more prepared for the opportunities ahead.
Come ready to learn, connect, and prepare your business for growth.
