UIC Commercial Services

Reorganization of two subsidiaries of UIC Commercial Services—a holding line for businesses owned by Ukpeaġvik Iñupiat Corporation (UIC), the village corporation for Utqiaġvik—into core components of the Alaska Civil Construction division means new titles for the leadership of Qayaq Construction and HC Contractors.

To lead the division, Kodi Long is promoted to Vice President of Alaska Civil Construction and continues as General Manager of Qayaq. Since 2020, his leadership efforts have resulted in building a highly skilled and dedicated Qayaq team. The company has established a track record for exceptional performance on Alaska infrastructure projects.
