			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><strong>Sub-Sight, the UK&#8217;s first truly focused online directory of construction sub-contracting companies has been relaunched this week, with a fantastic new look.</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>But the re-skin of the site is just the tip of the iceberg and belies the real magic of a website which has already connected many sub-contracters with vital business contacts at main contracting and development companies.</strong></h3>
<p>The concept is simple. You are a Construction Manager, Construction Director, Quantity Surveyor, Contracts Manager or Project Manager at a main contracting company. You are working on a construction project outside of your normal geographical area. Or you may be experiencing difficulties with the sub-contractors you would usually bring in to take charge of a part of your project. You need to find new subbies for the project. Quickly.</p>
<p>This is exactly what Sub-Sight will deliver for you.</p>
<p>Simply:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Choose a County</strong> that your project is in</li>
<li><strong>Choose a Sector</strong>, or type of subcontractor</li>
<li>Tick the <strong>Size of Contract </strong>that the subcontractor package is worth</li>
<li>Press Search</li>
</ol>
<p>It really is as simple as that.</p>
<p>Your search results will appear as an accurate list of exactly the type of contractors you are looking for. (See below)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sub-sight.co.uk/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Search-Results.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-656" title="Search Results" src="http://www.sub-sight.co.uk/news/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Search-Results-300x197.jpg" alt="Sub-Sight provides accurate search results" width="300" height="197" /></a></p>
<p>Then feel free to look search through the companies on your search results. Once you have found one that you feel would suit your requirements, you can contact them with details of a project and invite them to contact you.</p>
<p>Add to that, our partnership with <a title="RiskDisk" href="http://www.riskdisk.com/" target="_blank">RiskDisk</a>, one of the nation&#8217;s leading credit reference organisations, and you have a complete package whereby you can search for,  source and reference prospective sub-contractors before working with them. This lessens your risks and, by choosing sub-contractors local to your project, you can help to reduce the carbon footprint of the project.</p>

<p class="bodytext">The decision is expected to be rubber-stamped early next week and, if the project is accepted by the academy&#8217;s sponsors, a planning application will go in during July with work expected to start in Autumn/ Winter 2009.
