Designed to sit alongside professional procurement rather than replace it.
Keep professional duties separate
BuildConnect does not act as Contract Administrator or Employer's Agent. Your appointment, certification and contract duties remain unchanged.
Widen contractor coverage
Use BuildConnect alongside an existing tender list when a project needs additional local, specialist or SME contractor interest.
Start from existing tender information
Project Concierge can help turn surveys, schedules, specifications and drawings into a first contractor-facing marketplace draft for professional review.
Typical opportunities
- Planned maintenance and major works
- Residential block refurbishment
- External repair programmes
- Roofing and façade packages
- Commercial refurbishment and fit-out
- Remedial and compliance works
Professional status is recorded without implying endorsement.
Contract administrators and Employer's Agents can provide relevant professional membership or practice information where applicable. BuildConnect records supported information factually and does not imply endorsement by a professional body.
BuildConnect UK is independent and does not claim endorsement by ARB, RICS or any other professional body.
Use BuildConnect when your client needs additional contractor interest.
Prepare the scope
Use drawings, surveys, specifications, value, programme and project constraints to give contractors a clearer basis for deciding whether the opportunity fits.
Keep the client in control
The client or authorised representative controls publication and decides which contractor introductions are approved.
Supplement your tender list
BuildConnect can provide another route to contractor interest without replacing professional procurement, evaluation or appointment responsibilities.
Know a colleague or client who would find this route useful?
Share this profession-specific route by LinkedIn, WhatsApp, email or direct link. Referred visitors still make their own decision whether to apply, post a project or use BuildConnect.
Does BuildConnect replace the Contract Administrator or Employer's Agent?
No. BuildConnect is a marketplace and contractor-discovery route. Professional duties, tender recommendations, certification and contract administration remain with the appointed professional team.
Can BuildConnect be used alongside an existing tender list?
Yes. It can supplement existing contractor lists and procurement routes where the client and professional team decide broader market coverage would be useful.
Can tender information stay controlled?
Yes. Public opportunity information can remain limited while private project documents and direct contacts are shared through controlled workflows.
