According to EAI, National Telecom Alliance was the country’s first alliance of privately held telecommunications and electrical contractors.

“NTA was designed to maximize member company profitability through the implementation of industry business solutions, proprietary programs, and systems proven to enhance performance of companies,” said Michael O’Mara, former CEO of NTA. “NTA filled the void for telecommunications and electrical contractors by providing a national forum and marketing organization to help businesses grow.”

Late last year, EAI announced that it would be expanding its membership base to provide a complete mechanical solution to businesses and consumers. To accomplish that, EAI established new alliance territories for plumbing, electrical, and refrigeration contractors, and created the Contractors Advisory Board to service these areas. EAI said the integration of NTA and its members into EAI will serve as the foundation for the new EAI electrical and telecom alliance.
