Subcontracting Opportunities (Construction/Suppliers)
I met with Cianbro at a Government Buyer's Matchmaker event in Maine last week. They are looking for subcontractors in the construction/project management field. They cover a large geographic area in the eastern part of the U.S. Check out their Subcontractors & Suppliers link here: https://www.cianbro.com/subsandsuppliers. OR add your company name to their list of possible contract opportunities here: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=MXQCKFeeZ0a2qFetps7H9gwkqN-sU8dNhGJpNHXEYW9UOVNVNkNOSEZSNjhGUE9VV0JIMDc4VkwxRi4u&route=shorturl. I'll send out direct opportunities as they come in from the Procurement Manager.
