TRADE CONTRACTORS & VENDORS Communication, collaboration, partnership

At WEAVERCOOKE, the terms “Trade Partner” and “Trade Contractor” are synonymous. We view trade contractors and vendors as true partners in the construction of the facilities that we build. We believe strong relationships with trade contractors and suppliers are critical to our success as a negotiated contractor. We work hard to assemble the best teams for our clients, and our trade contractors are an integral part of these teams. Through open communication and collaboration, WEAVERCOOKE strives to achieve a win-win for our clients and all team members involved in the delivery of superior facilities. WEAVERCOOKE’s Manager of Trade Contractor Development (MTCD) works exclusively to find the best-suited trade contractors for each project. From the prequalification process and bid submission/selection, through the end of the project life cycle, the Manager of Trade Contractor Development serves as a resource to our trade contractors. WEAVERCOOKE’s goal is to strengthen relationships with our current trade contractors and develop relationships with new trade contractors that share our commitment to excellent customer service and quality workmanship.
