What we don't want: We are not looking for submissions from subcontractors, suppliers, or manufacturers.This RFP is open to main contractors that will be involved in the design process to provide technical assistance on all aspects for the remediation. Any procurement of materials and subcontractors will be managed by the successful main contractor.
