Happy days for some.You will find a lot of big organisations have prefered contractors they work with, the companies used might be offering things other than low costs. There are many advantages with working with tried and tested contractors who understand exactly what you want and need and deliver on time. Open tendering and going for lowest cost does not always deliver the goods.
