Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This contract will almost certainly disqualify small builders without significant refurbishment experience, employer liability insurance above standard levels, and the ability to manage multiple subcontractors on a £190k project; you will also need to register on the ProContract portal which requires time and administrative setup.
