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.

Reducing the distance between people, markets, services and knowledge – or simply ‘getting people connected’ – is a great part of what economic growth is all about. Ulticon Builders Inc., headed by Carlos Gonzalez, have been paving the way for Filipinos for more than 20 years now.
UBI considers that the development of rural roads brings multiple socio-economic benefits to the rural areas which form a strong base of the National economy and that it’s a powerful instrument for the socio-economic transformation of the villages.
Below are some of the latest roads they’ve paved for the present and future generations:
ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, is an independent, non-governmental international organization with a membership of 163 national standards bodies. They give world-class specifications for products, services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency. UBI has been accredited under three different sets of standards published by ISO. One of these is ISO 14001-2004 or Environmental Management System (EMS)
ISO 14001 is an internationally accepted standard that outlines how to put an effective environmental management system in place in your organization. It is designed to help businesses remain commercially successful without overlooking environmental responsibilities and impacts. It can also help you to grow sustainably while reducing the environmental impact of this growth.
UBI’s President, Carlos Gonzalez, firmly believes in putting environmental management at the heart of Ulticon Builder’s operations in order to have sustainable success. These are the results of Ulticon’s hard work and perseverance in implementing EMS or Environmental Management System:
Investment in infrastructure development can boost the economic growth. Particularly, in disaster affected areas, the reconstruction of essential public infrastructure is an important ingredient for recovery, sustained economic growth and poverty reduction.
Ulticon Builders Inc. focuses its business on infrastructure development, since they believe that it is significant and vital for the socio-economic development of the country. Through this, UBI has helped impoverished/disaster affected communities by improving their access to essential infrastructure, such as schools and houses; easing access to water supply schemes; employing local skilled labors for construction work.
Ulticon has high hopes for the Philippines, a developing country. Aside from those mentioned, Ulticon has been on the front foot in building the country through paying taxes religiously.
UBI, under the supervision of Carlos Gonzalez, was recognized by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) as Top Corporate Taxpayer in CARAGA Region. Furthermore, UBI considers proper filing of returns and payment of taxes as means of abiding to its corporate social responsibility (CSR).
Ulticon Builders Incorporated, headed by its CEO & President, Mr. Carlos Gonzalez, has always paved the way for the future. In 23 years of existence, Ulticon has and will always tightly control the essentials of road construction to ensure quality results.
Budget
Finishing projects on time and on budget has always been crucial for UBI. Ulticon’s budgeting process is highly reminted thru the thorough analysis of their intuitive project engineers.
Manpower
In order for the projects to finish on pristine quality and on time, UBI always make sure to have adequate manpower to do the job. Thankfully, UBI is certified with OHSAS 18001:2007, stating that Ulticon has been assessed to have a very safe and healthy workplace. Through this certificate, Ulticon Builders has no problem with looking for manpower.
Equipment & Materials
The selection of the appropriate type and size of construction equipment and materials often affects the required amount of time and effort and thus the job-site productivity of a project. It is therefore important for site managers and construction planners to be familiar with the characteristics of the major types of equipment most commonly used in construction. Ulticon has a complete variety of equipment at their disposal for road construction.
Born officially in 1947, but with roots that traces back to the revolutionary days, the Philippine Red Cross has truly become the premier humanitarian organization in the country, committed to provide quality life-saving services that protect the life and dignity especially of indigent Filipinos in vulnerable situations.
Ulticon Builders Inc. is known to be very concerned about the safety and well-being of their employees, and that’s an understatement. In fact, UBI, under the supervision of Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez, the President and Founder of UBI, has never experienced accidents with their employees in any project. This fact alone indicates how much UBI emphasizes their devotion in keeping their employees safe. But their passion in helping their people’s well-being, as well as others’, doesn’t stop there.
2010 was the year Ulticon Builders Inc. got involved in saving lives through a fruitful partnership with Red Cross Philippines in it’s blood letting program. UBI promotes their employees from the project sites, motor pool and admin personnel to donate their blood to save the lives of others. Ever since then, UBI, with the help of the PRC, has been punctual in sharing their drops of hope through phlebotomy.
Aside from the joy of saving lives by contributing to the blood bank, phlebotomy has also improved the overall cardiovascular health of UBI’s employees. Because regular blood donations keep the levels of iron in check, which reduces the risk of heart disease and cancer, UBI has made it a habit to schedule it every three months. Ulticon Builders Inc., headed by Carlos “Charlie” Gonzalez, shows no sign of stopping in helping the lives of Filipinos.
