Work on government projects as a sub-contractor

Not ready to bid as the main contractor, or not eligible yet? Many awarded contracts need sub-contractors and suppliers. We connect businesses that have won government work with businesses that can carry out part of it, in both directions.

  • Fee agreed first. We tell you what we will do and what it costs before any work starts.
  • You approve every bid. Nothing is submitted until you have seen the final bid and said yes.
  • Your name, your DSC. Bids go in your company’s name, on the official portal, signed with your own DSC.

What we do

For sub-contractors

Tell us your trade, area and capacity; we introduce you to main contractors that need that work.

For main contractors

Sub-contractors and suppliers we know in the trade and area, introduced once both sides agree.

The contract’s conditions

Government contracts usually allow sub-contracting only with the department’s approval, and some parts of the work cannot be sub-contracted. We check what yours says.

Paperwork that counts later

A written agreement, work orders and a completion certificate from the main contractor, which some future tenders accept as experience.

Who it is for

  • Small contractors and specialists building up government experience
  • Suppliers of materials, equipment, labour and transport
  • Main contractors who need dependable sub-contractors for a new contract
  • Businesses not yet eligible to bid in their own name

How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us what you do

    Or what work you need done, where and when.

  2. 2

    We look for a match

    Among contractors and suppliers in that trade and area.

  3. 3

    Introductions

    When both sides agree to talk.

  4. 4

    Agree the terms

    Between yourselves, with the paperwork done properly.

What you will need

We send you an exact checklist for your case; this is the usual list.

  • Your trade, the work you can do, and the areas you cover
  • Your team, equipment and the size of job you can take
  • Past work, with work orders or completion certificates if you have them
  • For main contractors: the contract, the work to sub-contract and the timeline

Questions about Sub-contracting Opportunities

Is sub-contracting allowed in government contracts?

Usually yes, within limits. Most contracts require the department’s prior approval, may cap how much of the work can be sub-contracted, and keep the main contractor responsible for all of it. The contract says what applies.

Does sub-contracted work count as experience for my own bids?

It depends on the tender. Some accept a completion certificate from the main contractor with the work order; others count only work done directly for a government buyer. Read each tender’s definition of similar work.
