Unlike many other industries, the demand for commercial and residential contractors and workers has continually grown since 2012. General contractors are reporting their biggest backlog of work in years, thanks to increased consumer demand, coupled with the unprecedented low interest rates. In fact, there are so many active and upcoming construction projects in Tennessee that it ranks within the top 15 states in the nation for construction demand today. The good news is that many general contractors are searching for subcontractors and material suppliers to keep their projects on schedule and meet completion deadlines. You can learn more about current Tennessee construction projects here.
PlanHub allows you to see the current projects available for bid throughout Tennessee. You can search by a project type such as new construction, renovation, or road work. Or you can search for construction projects by location such as Nashville or Knoxville. From a small commercial project in Johnson City to a large improvement project in Memphis, PlanHub can easily find the types of contracts that fit your wants and needs. You can learn more about PlanHub’s listings of current Tennessee subcontractor jobs here.
Tennessee requires all contractors to hold a current Tennessee state contractor’s license issued by the Contractors State License Board. In addition, there may be specific bond and insurance requirements listed in greater detail on the state website.
If you’re considering bidding on projects in Tennessee, you will want to visit the Tennessee Worker Safety website. Understanding the state’s latest worker safety requirements will be helpful as you prepare your bids for Tennessee construction projects.
Subcontractors constantly struggle to find and connect with reputable and busy general contractors. PlanHub has reviewed the most recent construction industry data to determine Tennessee’s most prominent and active general contractors, and here are their website links.
Plans for new construction projects go out to bid once the architect has finalized the plans with the project owner. Depending on the project’s size and scope, new drawings can take a few weeks to several months to complete. While we can’t speak for other plan room services, once PlanHub receives a new construction project, a comprehensive plan, specs, and bidders list are available online within hours.
Access the PlanHub plan room to pick and choose the projects that interest you and start your takeoff process. Once you’re properly licensed, you can begin submitting your bid to the general contractors bidding on the project. Certain publicly funded projects may contain specific bidding requirements, forms, or may require a team of workers with a specific set of skills or equipment; typically these caveats are included with the plans and specs.
The AGC of Tennessee provides training, support, and business resources to help contractors and subs build a better construction environment for the future of construction in Tennessee.
Some similarities from one state to the next are typical since most state building codes provide a baseline of occupant safety and comfort. However, every state creates its building code to address localized environmental issues such as hurricanes, tornadoes, landslides, flooding, and even earthquakes.
