Contractor Selection for MAT & Academy Construction Projects
The most important decision for any project
Choosing the right contractor or contractor(s) for your construction project is one of most important decisions when planning a project.
At S2e our team of RICS qualified chartered building surveyors have many years of experience of managing all aspects of a construction project, including selecting and managing contractors, many of whom are pre-vetted after working together on previously successful projects.
The main tasks involved in contractor selection are as follows:
Preparing tender documents
Pulling together a potential contractor list
Pre-qualification
Managing the tender process
Contractor selection, negotiation and contract agreement
For more information on contractor selection and our broader capital projects delivery service, please call 0116 5070130 or email enquire@s2e.org.uk.
