Vendor and Contractor Management: We vett, select, and manage subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors to ensure quality workmanship, timely delivery of materials, and adherence to project specifications.
Step 1: Vendor and Contractor Selection
1.1. The process begins with a comprehensive vendor and contractor selection process. We identify the specific needs for subcontractors, suppliers, and other service providers based on the project scope.
1.2. Potential vendors and contractors are evaluated based on factors such as experience, reputation, cost competitiveness, and their ability to meet project requirements.
Step 2: Prequalification and Due Diligence

2.2. Only those who meet our rigorous criteria are considered for further engagement.
Step 3: Contract Negotiation and Agreement
3.1. Once vendors and contractors are selected, we negotiate and finalize contracts. These contracts outline the terms and conditions, scope of work, payment terms, project schedules, and performance expectations.
3.2. Contracts are reviewed by legal counsel to ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
Step 4: Project Kick-Off Meeting
4.1. A project kick-off meeting is conducted to bring together all parties involved, including the client, vendors, contractors, and our project management team.
