For subbies

Connect with more builders using E1

Top

E1 helps subcontractors and suppliers connect with builders by giving them direct access to live tenders and key project data.

Subbies can find and bid on jobs that match their trade, while suppliers can track where their products are specified and engage with decision-makers.

By joining the E1 network, you make your business visible to top head contractors who can access your profile, view your work history, and invite you to relevant projects.

This means more opportunities, stronger relationships, and a direct line to builders looking for trusted subcontractors and suppliers.
