Ulticon started with only four employees in a small office in Davao City. Back then, they handled small projects (E.g. school buildings) that they could handle.
In 2000, They ventured road construction. Construction works opportunity opened up to the company. It was awarded various contracts from different government agencies, a just reward for its having completed its previous projects on time and at high standards of quality.
In 2006, Carlos “Charlie” S. Gonzalez was blessed with more projects, so he had to transfer their operations in a building in Quimpo Boulevard.
In 2009, They passed three ISO certificates, namely: EMS, QMS and OHSMS. This was certainly in the books, because this would mean they could now bid projects that would cost P100 million and up.
As of Today, they have 1303 employees. This was a dream fulfilling experience for an upstart company headed by its founder and president, Mr. Carlos “Charlie” S. Gonzalez and his brother Engr. Raul “Sonny” S. Gonzalez.
Ulticon is determined to keep meeting an impeccable reputation of top-quality work and delivering customer satisfaction to everyone that partners with them. Each person in Ulticon strives to deliver consistent, superior service to uphold regulatory requirements that benefit the company.
Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez attributes Ulticon’s success to its employees’ dedication to excellent work, customer service that exceeds expectations, and a safety program that led the company to zero accidents in the field.
Since 2009, Ulticon has been accredited under three different sets of standards published by the International Organization for Standardization or ISO. These are ISO 14001-2004 or Environmental Management System (EMS), ISO 18001-2007 or Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) and ISO 9001-2008 or Quality Management System (QMS).

We ask people from the admin team of Ulticon Builders, “Describe Ulticon in one word.” And most of them answered “Family.” It brings joy and happiness to the leaders of Ulticon that they’ve instilled the feeling of belongingness to their employees. It has always been the dream of the founders to not only build bridges to communities but to build bridges to people as well. This culture has been achieved through understanding each other in the company, no matter who you are. A quality company culture is one of the hardest workplace qualities to obtain, because the investment is time.
Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez, Vice-President of Ulticon Builders, understands the importance of having a company culture.
Your company culture defines the way in which your organization interacts with one another and how the team interacts with the outside world, specifically your partners and suppliers.
It’s the formula that guides the team, as well as inspires and motivates employees. It is also responsible for attracting and retaining great talent, as well as creating a fun, happy and exciting work environment.
A great company culture also attracts a great partner which, in turn, creates great success! People will want to do business with you because of what you believe in and stand for, rather than solely on your products alone. Understanding this principle will quickly allow you to see the importance of company culture.
Trees beautify our environment but Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez of Ulticon Builders understand that their values lie beyond the aesthetics. They remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, increase biodiversity in our environment, prevent soil erosion, as well as provide shade and lower the atmospheric temperature.
Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez of Ulticon Builders, Inc. invited members of the said company to join a tree planting event that was held on the 6th of May 2016. A grand total of 40 people volunteered to show support for the event, which was geared to help secure the future of our environment for the generations to come. With help from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Region XI, 400 seedlings of tree was planted at the quarrying area (Marilog District) to restore brownfield areas and to help fight climate change and global warming which is a threat to the natural habitat of wildlife in the world.
We will act locally and save globally.
Ulticon Builders Inc. Davao, supervised by Carlos Gonzalez, has always looked for ways to improve the quality of their work and to finish it faster.
The activities involved in Construction Projects where the magnitude of the work is on a large scale, speedy work and timely completion of work with quality control are very vital. In order to achieve this, Carlos Gonzalez believes that mechanization of work has to be done, where Construction Machinery & Equipment play a pivotal role.
The times are changing and in order for Ulticon to maintain the high quality standards required by present-day design and specifications, new equipment must be utilized. Ulticon also desires to eliminate the heavy manual work by human thus reducing fatigue and eliminates various hazards and health issues on their employees.
It is a common fact that we find a variety of construction machines on every construction site, which makes the construction jobs easy, safe and quicker. Ulticon Builders Inc. vigorously pursue the efficient utilization of labor, material and equipment. The use of new equipment and innovative methods has made possible wholesale changes in the processes of Ulticon Builders Inc.
Helping the impoverished means different things to different people, but that’s the beauty of it. In the case of Ulticon Builders Inc., not only have they been affecting the lives of travelers, but most importantly the lives of the locals. Ulticon Builders Inc., throughout the years, has given employment to a large number of skilled labourers in the local neighborhood, who earn food and cash to secure their basic needs and improve their livelihood.
Ulticon has also helped in promoting locally produced tools (e.g. hammer) which can be maintained and produced. During road construction, local workers acquire skills that can be beneficial to them in day-to-day life (e.g. house construction) or even help them land a job. Ulticon Builders, headed by Carlos Gonzalez, has given hope to the locals knowing that their home and land have started developing.
Roads play an important role for overcoming the isolation of the villages. It provides a much needed opportunity for the village population to come in contact with other groups of the society, which in turn inculcates in them a sense of being a part of national main stream in its prosperity and progress. The areas heretofore inaccessible become easy to reach for administrative and welfare agencies particularly in tunes of natural calamities and for relief operations whenever needed.
Helping the locals has always been one of the aspirations of Carlos Gonzalez, and continue to be.
Through the efforts of Carlos Gonzalez, Davao-based Ulticon Builders Inc. won the bid to construct a major road in Mindanao. The road project involves the concreting of the existing dirt road and the opening of portions that connects the province of Bukidnon to Davao del Norte.
The 56-kilometer road is named Kapalong Talaingod Road. The construction of Kapalong Talaingod Road, a national highway from Valencia City to Tagum City, now eases the transport of goods to and from both cities.
It has always been a passion for everyone in Ulticon to help the indigenous people. The same passion fueled Ulticon Builders Inc. to see to it that Kapalong Talaingod Road in a timely manner. Today, the road is accessible for the people of Mindanao and tourists to experience.
As an alternate road to the Davao-Calinan-Bukidnon Road, the road now cuts the travel time by half between Davao del Norte and Bukidnon. The project’s total length from Talaingod to the Bukidnon boundary is about 56 kilometers. This 56-kilometer stretch of road incites economic opportunities in the region and the whole of Mindanao. The road doesn’t only promote agri-business but also the tourism industry of the Davao Region.
It is a difficult task to construct a bridge over Esperanza River because of the nature of the said river. But despite this, Ulticon Builders Inc. pushed for the immediate completion of the project to make the transport of farm products more economical, and for the convenience of the traveling public.
Although building the bridge over Esperanza River proved to be complicated, Ulticon Builders Inc.’s witty engineers have done an excellent job in solving the case.
Through the efforts of Ulticon Builders, under the supervision of Carlos Gonzalez, The Esperanza Bridge now provides the local residents with the opportunity to increase their income – due to savings generated from hauling and transportation cost. Ulticon deems the Esperanza Bridge to be one of their biggest projects to date. Considering the difficulty of this project, Ulticon has definitely proved once again that they always get the job done.
