Hats off to the Illinois Tollway for hosting a successful meet the Job Order Contracting (JOC) Meet the Primes event yesterday morning.
What a great effort to put qualified subcontractors in front of prime companies such as Leopardo Construction, Anchor Mechanical LLC, McDonagh Demolition and Construction, Inc.
A big thank you to Terry Miller and the rest of the Illinois Tollway team for the special recognition to the members of the Illinois Tollway Technical Assistance team!
Here are the biggest hurdles contractors think about when working with the Tollway:
- Not familiar with the bidding process.
- Difficulty creating a capabilities statement.
- Needing help putting a successful bid together.
- Trouble obtaining surety bonds for prime contracts.
- Unfamiliar with the Tollway insurance requirements.
- Obtaining the proper MWDVBE certifications.
The Illinois Tollway has invested in their diversity efforts and it shows by having our team help you overcome each past obstacle.
For the past two years it’s been an honor assisting members of our Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce technical assistance program cohort to meet the insurance and bonding requirements.
What’s the best part of this program, aside from working with out incredible group, that all these services are at no charge to you, the business owner!
