Meet-and-greet for southwest supply chain

1 Mar 13 Construction-related suppliers from southwest England are invited to a free ‘Meet the Buyer’ event in Bristol to meet potential clients and discuss work opportunities in the area.

The event, hosted by Constructionline, will take place on Wednesday 13 March in Congresbury. Small and medium-sized subcontractors, consultants and materials suppliers will have the opportunity to meet key procurement decision makers from public and private organisations, including large contractors and local authorities.

The following organisations will be there:

  • Alliance Homes
  • Lend Lease
  • Kier Facilities Services
  • Vinci FM
  • Dawnus
  • University of Bath
  • Royal United Hospital Bath NHS Trust
  • Stratton St Margaret Parish Council
  • HM Land Registry
  • The Considerate Constructors Scheme
  • Assessment North East
  • O'Hare & McGovern
  • Willis
  • COINS.

Constructionline client relationship manager Seonaid Culliford said: “In our experience, both private and public sector clients want to give work to local contractors and, in turn, the contractors are eager to win these tenders. However, we understand it is often difficult for contractors and buyers to get opportunities to meet face-to-face, hence the reason for hosting events such as this. Helping establish relationships between suppliers and clients is one of the many added-value benefits we provide for our members – we want to help them find and secure work and also make it easier for buyers to find reliable and local construction companies.”

The event is free and suppliers do not have to be registered with Constructionline to attend. For more information about the event and to register your attendance visit www.constructionline.co.uk.

Constructionline is a government owned pre-qualification certification scheme for contractors, consultants and material suppliers.
