About Us

Almost 15 years ago, 3C Industries (formerly 3C Contracting) took root as a small construction management consulting firm in Urbana, Ohio. Built from the sweat of hard work and honest, small-town values, our business earned a reputation for quality work with a focused attention on always “doing better”.

Two generations later, our family-run business is tackling diverse and challenging projects in both the public and private sectors. We’ve evolved with new skills and adopted new technologies that drive both innovation and efficiency, but we remain steadfast to the commitment that’s been the source of our longevity since the beginning: focus on continual improvement (Kaizen is the Japanese term for this) and business is personal, know your client.

As a minority-owned business, we believe the lens through which we understand clients’ needs brings a fresh perspective, and we offer flexible solutions to tackle their most pressing challenges.
