In the construction industry, the tender process has long been plagued by inefficiency. Subcontractors scramble to locate compliance documents, insurance certificates, and licenses for each tender response.
Contractors wade through emails and file shares trying to review submissions and verify compliance. The result? Wasted time, missed opportunities, and unnecessary administrative burden.
Introducing SubTender
SubTender is a purpose-built web application designed to transform how contractors and subcontractors collaborate on tenders. By centralising document management and streamlining the submission process, SubTender eliminates the chaos and brings clarity to tender management.
