Trade Package
Definition
A trade package is a defined scope of work representing a single trade or closely related group of trades, typically let to a single subcontractor. Common trade packages include groundworks, structural frame, roofing, cladding, mechanical services, electrical services, drylining, and finishes.
In construction tendering, this means...
Defining trade package boundaries correctly at tender stage is critical for GCs. Poor boundaries lead to gaps (nobody is responsible for interface items) and overlaps (both subs include the same item and argue about who does it). Takshy helps GCs structure extracted scope items into clear, non-overlapping trade packages before sending RFQs.
Takshy automates the parts of the tendering process that involve trade package, extracting scope, managing documents, and keeping your workflow organised from first document to final award.
