Frequently Asked Questions
What is a contractor’s bid?
A contractor’s bid is an offer to a subcontractor to estimate the cost of a project and the projected end date.
What is the bidding process?
All bidding projects are eligible to be worked on by other subcontractors to help expertly complete the construction project. If you are a subcontractor or trade partner interested in working on one of our projects, fill out the form, and we will be in touch with you shortly. Then, we will share with you any necessary documentation so you can draft your bid. All interested subcontractors send their bids to us, or the general contractor, and general contractors take it from there to analyze, compare, and negotiate what subcontractor works best for them. Once a subcontractor for each trade needed has been hired, the general contractor creates a final portfolio based on the specs of the request for proposal, and gives it to the architect of the project. The owner is left to choose a general contractor, and with that general contractor comes a variety of subcontractors to work on the Ohio construction project.
How does an owner choose a general contractor?
The owner of the project uses the request for proposal as a guide to make the final decision, but many factors can come into play. Oftentimes, public projects are required to select the contractor with the lowest bid. Owners may look at the contractor’s background, experience, and past work portfolio. Also, it is possible they evaluate personal resumes, safety records, scheduling attentiveness, and company philosophy. Once the owner has thoroughly studied each general contractor and the contractor’s proposal, the owner picks the one that best fits their specific needs.
Can negotiations occur after a bid is offered?
Yes. The bid is in place to give an estimate of the Ohio construction project cost. After a general contractor picks a subcontractor, negotiations will take place and each will find common ground on the final pricing, budget, and schedule. Once negotiations are final, then a contract can be drawn up.
What are the staffing, accreditation and licensing requirements necessary to work as a subcontractor on home building projects?
In order to serve as a subcontractor with an established builder, you must be able to provide your bona fides including proof that you have a successful track record related to construction projects, you have the staff necessary to complete the job, and that your staff has the proper training and necessary licensing to fulfill the specific needs of the project. References by other general contractors with whom you have worked also helps.
