Constructionline

Constructionline is a register of construction-related contractors and consultants, pre-qualified to work within the public sector (Central Government Departments, Local Authorities, Universities and places of Further Education, and Main Contractors).

Constructionline streamlines the pre-qualification stage, i.e. the first stage of the tendering process. This means that firms do not have to repeatedly fill in pre-qualification forms for each tender.

Constructionline is DTI owned and endorsed, and is a contributor to the Rethinking Construction initiative.
