The Last Frontier Chapter of the Construction Financial Management Association (CFMA) is a group of construction financial professionals in Alaska meeting on a monthly basis to address the membership’s special interests and requirements.  General membership is open to financial employees of all types of contractors including general, subs, developers, and special trades.  Associate membership is available to anyone servicing the industry, such as public accountants, attorneys, bankers, material and equipment suppliers, insurance agencies, surety companies, architects and others.

The Chapter was accepted in December 2004.  In 2006, The Last Frontier Chapter was awarded the Chairman’s Excellence Award and New Chapter of the Year Award.

The Chairman's Excellence Award is the highest honor a chapter can receive in the Achievement Category of CFMA's annual Chapter Recognition Program (CRP).  Awards are presented based on chapter size and  recognizes chapters for their accomplishments during the April 1-March 31 fiscal year.  Points are obtained by completing an objective scoring form in the following seven areas: Member Services, Membership Development, Special Events/Projects, Academic/Student Liaison, Communications/Public Relations, CFMA Participation, and Chapter Governance.

For the 2005/2006 fiscal year, the Last Frontier Chapter earned 102 points. A chapter of its size (less than 40 members) needs 60 points to receive the Chairman's Excellence Award.  As a tribute to its extraordinary progress in its first full year as a chapter, Last Frontier also earned the New Chapter of the Year Award.
