About

Company History

UMAC Construction Drafting & Consulting Services LTD was established as a subsidiary of F2M Fire and Drafting Designs Inc., a respected New York-based drafting firm. The company’s founder was driven by a deeply personal mission — to give back to the country of his birth, a Jamaican national who migrated to the United States as a teenager straight out of high school.

Over the years, as F2M grew, the owner faced increasing challenges in finding qualified talent to fill key positions in the company. At the same time, he felt a growing desire to invest in Jamaica and help others reach their full potential. This convergence of business need and personal calling became the catalyst for UMAC.

With the support of his cousin-in-law, nephew, a close friend, and his wife, he launched UMAC in Lucea, Hanover — the very community where he attended high school and first discovered his passion for drafting. UMAC was built not only as a business, but as a legacy project rooted in mentorship, empowerment, and opportunity.

Today, UMAC stands as a symbol of Jamaican excellence connected to international standards. With over 40 years of combined industry experience, we provide specialized design services in fire sprinkler systems, 3D drafting, BIM coordination, estimating, and residential architectural planning — all while creating meaningful employment and fostering local talent.
