CARM’s FREE
Services for
Construction
Project Owners
CARM is pleased to offer the following services free-of-charge
for any constuction-related or road-building tenders. We strive
to meet the needs of Manitoba construction tenderers and
contractors, so please call the office any time to request services
you may require. We are very keen to assist.
The PlanPoint platform is a free service to project owners. For
owners, the platform significantly decreases, if not completely
eliminates, the time required to field phone calls and distribute
plans and specifications for a tender. Posting to PlanPoint is
a fast and extremely convenient method to find construction
tenders with detailed information and 24/7 access.

Online Project Listing
The project information posted on behalf of owners comes di-rectly
from tender documents. We only post document content
and the information owners want to appear, which is completely
at their discretion.
Some key information may include (if applicable):
• What the project is, brief description
• Where to obtain the documents
• Type of tender (RFQ, RFP, etc.)
• Construction start/end dates
• Where the project is located
• Estimated value
• Where to submit bids
• Owner and/or construction manager
• Who to contact for questions
• Engineers/architects
• Site visits, if necessary
• Bonding/safety requirements
• Tender close date/time
• Addenda/notifications
In some cases, owners prefer to receive pricing from “sub-trades
only” or the tender is open to “invited general contractors only.”
