04Expert notes: Construction & trades

Public construction work often runs through frameworks and minimum standards such as Constructionline or CHAS, and SSIP accreditation for health and safety. Larger contracts usually set a minimum turnover; smaller lots and Contracts Finder notices are where SMEs get started.
