Andy Manahan

Executive Director, Residential and Civil Construction Alliance of Ontario

Mr. Manahan is the Executive Director of the Residential and Civil Construction Alliance of Ontario. RCCAO was formed in late 2005 to bring together contractor associations and construction unions in order to speak with a stronger voice and offer solutions to government on infrastructure investment, regulatory reform and other issues of significance. 
 
RCCAO has commissioned more than 30 independent research reports on the infrastructure funding deficit; on ways to increase investment in a range of projects such as water and sewer, bridge, road and transit; and on improving government procurement practices.  
 
In an effort to move the infrastructure agenda forward, Mr. Manahan has linkages with a variety of organizations such as Metrolinx, Greater Toronto CivicAction, and the Toronto Region Board of Trade.
 
He served on the 13-citizen Transit Investment Strategy Advisory Panel which presented its recommendations to the Premier late in 2013.  Previous to his role at RCCAO, he was responsible for government relations at a major construction union based in Toronto.
