Main contractor discount??
« on: March 24, 2005, 10:24:31 am »
Hi Guys,

I'm in the middle of quoting for a builders clean and wondering what I should offer for a main contractor discount?? They specify in the details that they would like one but what should I offer?? 10% 20% ???

Many Thanks

Paul

Just for reference it used to be a flat 5%, some will take it off your final bill anyway and assume that if it was not stipulated then it was built in, so be careful.
Everyone seems normal untill you get to know them!

hi there.

Main Contractot Group, look for 5% of which companies such as Kier are a member of.

Hi
We work for a lot of the major developers, and have done tenders for some that we do not deal with as yet.....none have ever asked for or mentioned a major contractors discount.
They have always asked for a 5% retention etc.....but we always so No to that (which they have never argued with)
