Main contractors (18)
Tier 1 contractors. Most will only invite you to price once you are on their approved list, and most use Constructionline or their own portal to vet you first.
Housebuilders (2)
Housebuilders buy landscaping, fencing and groundworks regionally. The supply chain page tells you how they work; the real door is usually the regional commercial or buying team.
Prequalification schemes (9)
The accreditations buyers ask for. Get these sorted first, because almost every PQQ asks for one of them.
Public tender portals (7)
Where public sector tenders are published and submitted. Register once on each and set up alerts for your trades.
Frameworks and buying groups (9)
Buyers group work into frameworks lasting several years. Getting onto one, or onto the supply chain of a contractor who is on one, gives you repeat work.
Where subcontract packages get advertised (1)
Contractors advertise packages they need pricing here, often with a deadline only a few days away.
