Fine Tune Your Safety Program
Businesses that qualify as a certified Minority/Women Owned Business (MWBE) can bid as subcontractors in their construction specialty for lucrative, municipal contracts. Estimates from 2018 state that New York and New Jersey alone are projecting approximately $340 billion and $64 billion, respectively. General Contractors who win municipal contracts must comply with a 20-30% MWBE subcontractor participation goal. These GC’s require qualified MWBE specialty subcontractors to support them. In addition, with the passing of the Congressional Infrastructure Bill, the opportunities to work on large state construction and municipal projects will increase tremendously. That is where we can help.
Our company, EAS, Inc., has been working with GC’s on large municipal contracts in the Health and Safety arena for 15 years. Our experience has taught us that a key ingredient to accessing and winning large municipal subcontracts with larger GC’s is having an effective Safety Program. General Contractors seek out potential subcontractors with well-developed safety programs, as they pose significantly reduced risk of work stoppages, delays, accidents and injuries. Therefore, having an effective written, implemented Safety Program makes your business more attractive as a potential bidder.
EAS can assist your organization in creating, developing or modifying safety protocols and programs so that your company can present as an effective and capable GC partner on major construction projects. We will work with you to ensure that your company stands out from your competitors during the bidding process and beyond.
