Who We Are + What We Do

The Minnesota Builders Exchange (MBEX) is a nonprofit trade association with a mission of helping its members grow their businesses through the exchange of plans, the sharing of knowledge and the creation of powerful industry connections.

The Exchange has a vision of a vibrant and including construction industry that collaboratively, safely and sustainable builds Minnesota communities. Through its industry-leading digital plan room, the Exchange creates efficiency in bidding for more than 4,000 projects annually.

Since 1888, our builders exchange has existed for the sole purpose of assisting our member companies and their employees via first, a physical plan room, and presently, an online plan room where our team of reporters share projects currently bidding in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa and Wisconsin (and yes, all five states and their projects are included with membership).

What Our Members Are Saying

MBEX has given us another tool to market our company, to chase jobs, to track jobs, to network-- to basically put our company out there to expand our growth in the industry.


— Kyle Larson, Golden Valley Supply Co

The biggest benefit of partnering with MBEX has been the opportunity to meet a lot of new people. Some of it creates more work, some of it doesn't, but the relationships are long-lasting.


— Russ Reger, Dem-Con Companies LLC

The plan room is an indespensible part of our plan review process. The online plan room is helpful for viewing addenda printing our some of the plans we review.


— Dan Dufek, K M H Erectors Inc

The biggest benefit to being a MBEX member is the convenience of being able to come to the same place every day rather than driving hundreds of miles every week to various general contractor offices to do the same time. Being a member saves both time and money.


— Matt Packer, Hinrichs Estimating
