  2. What is the CIP? The CIP is a comprehensive approach to addressing the shortage of D/M/W/SBE and HUB Firms in heavy highway contracting. The CIP provides a road map for addressing this challenge and aims to bring together the key highway players and contractors /consultants to close this gap. The North Texas region is a dynamic and diverse community. The CIP paves the way to build on the foundation of inclusion by unifying the key professional organizations, highway organizations and community leaders to collaborate toward feasible strategies. The CIP Team holds free workshops/trainings, open to the public for contractors and consultants who perform work in the heavy highway construction industry. The target audience is minority contractors, consultants and providers of goods and services from the heavy highway construction industry.
