Pqqs - Money Making Scam?
PQQs - Money Making Scam? Published 21st April 2017 Is it not time that the Pre – Qualification money making scam is ended? Not only do specialist contractors have to deal with late payments, reduced margins and not getting fully paid, they are forced to participate in a pre-qualification process which is incredibly time consuming, exorbitantly costly and completely unnecessary. The process thrives on duplication and is required by Main Contractors to keep specialist contractors on their Approved Contractor lists. So, why don’t Main Contractors get together and develop forms/processes that are acceptable to all? Sounds simple, well yes, it is, if there was a will to do it. Of course, the more intuitive question would be, will Main Contractors willingly cease this money- making enterprise? And the predictable answer is, no they won’t! Build UK represents many of the Main Contractors, and many of the specialist federations and associations which represent the specialist contractor supply chain. So, why has such little progress to unify the PQQ process been made when all these players are members of the same Body, and therefore should be able to sit around the same table, with equal representation, to develop a process that will be of benefit to the construction industry? Answer; Main Contractors do not feel the need to change and are reluctant to reduce their income. Unhelpfully, Build UK represents Main Contractors and the aggrieved specialist supply chain – a near impossible position, which can only result in procrastination, and does. For those who are unaware of the time consuming and costly activities that specialist contractors reluctantly find themselves undertaking, the following is an example of PQQs and similar processes that a single specialist contractor will be involved with. -
