What are Private Construction Projects?

Whenever privately owned contracting authorities need to procure goods, works, or services for construction jobs, they will release a construction tender and invite suppliers to bid.

When bidding in the construction industry, there are different procurement procedures that are determined by the requirements of the construction contracts up for bid. The three main types of procedures used are:

  • Open Projects

  • Selective Tendering

  • Negotiated projects

Frameworks are also commonly used as a multi-supplier agreement between a buyer and a group of approved suppliers.

Types of Construction Contracts

Private companies and organisations are regularly releasing new construction tenders, which means there are plenty of new business opportunities for your company to bid on. It is important that you are familiar with the types of projects and methods used within the industry if you want to improve your chances of winning these projects .

In the construction sector, there are usually four categories under which buyers obtain goods, works, or services:

  1. Traditional contracts: This is the most commonly used method in the construction industry, involving an arrangement between the buyer, contractor, and consultants.

  2. Design and build contracts: The contractor will take responsibility for the design of the project as well as its construction.

  3. Management contracts: With these contracts, the buyer will choose the designer and contractor separately, paying the contractor a fee to manage the construction works.

  4. Contractor led contracts: This is a more complex process whereby the contractor will provide a design team to create concept designs as proposals for the tendering process.

Whichever type of contract you’re looking for, with the right tools from Tracker, you can enhance your chances of winning new business opportunities in construction.

Construction Tender Opportunities Within the Private Sector

With the private construction sector being as big as it is and with each project requiring companies with specific skill sets and resources, there are always new contract opportunities available to be bid on. Sub-contracting opportunities are also extremely prevalent within this sector, which introduces even more opportunities to access work in the construction industry.

Tracker can help you find contract opportunities in all of the three construction sub-sectors:

Building

Private building construction is usually divided into residential and non-residential construction projects.

  • Residential contract opportunities include private building construction tenders for homes, housing developments, buildings, and garages.

  • Non-residential tenders for construction projects include small and large commercial buildings, churches, stores, schools, and hospitals.

Refurbishment contracts also fall within this sub-sector under building renovation and remodelling. This involves making changes to existing structures to improve aesthetics, safety, and functionality.

Infrastructure

Private infrastructure construction falls in line with civil engineering projects that offer contract opportunities in the construction of roads, dams, bridges, reservoirs, and tunnels.

Industrial

Private industrial construction is responsible for designing and building highly specialised structures and facilities. These construction project tenders include mining and quarrying, chemical processing, manufacturing & power generation plants, refineries, and offshore construction contracts.
