What is DCAMM Certification?

The Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM) oversees public construction projects and facilities management throughout Massachusetts, ensuring that publicly-funded projects adhere to the highest standards of safety, quality, and performance. DCAMM certification is a rigorous process that evaluates a company’s ability to meet these benchmarks, including project management, safety protocols, and regulatory compliance.

This essential credential is required for firms bidding on public construction projects and serves as a key differentiator in the industry. Achieving DCAMM certification underscores a company’s commitment to delivering reliable, sustainable solutions while complying with stringent state guidelines.
