Plan Room

Our membership-based Plan Room services the needs and requirements of prime construction contractors, architects, engineers and contract owners, as well as minority, women and small-business contractors. We established the Plan Room under the sponsorship of:

Many of the contractors who enter our program lack the critical business tools necessary to sustain viable enterprises. One of our sponsors has agreed to provide a state-of-the-art construction software package. Our staff will schedule regular training on that software, which will allow these business owners to control their construction projects from start to finish. This software will enhance the contractors' business skills throughout the process, from initial brainstorming sessions to the day-to-day updating.

Optional orientation modules include networking, industry information and updates to hone the contractors' professional development and procurement opportunities with general and prime contractors.

How it works

Join the Plan Room

Plan Room equipment receives graphical files and plans from architects, planners and owners,
and updates construction project
lists and forecasts.
Copy Services provides hard
copies of prints and allows
members to take the job home
for takeoffs and estimating at their own business locations.
Projects-Out-To-Bid Bulletins from all over North Carolina allow members to identify potential projects for bidding outside
of Wake County.
Daily Project Updates at the Plan Room bulletin board keep members apprised of all new projects, bidders’ lists and other critical project information.

The business service gap filled by the
RBTC Plan Room is significant: Emerging construction contractors and established contractors will utilize our expertise to successfully bid and deliver their
contracted services.

In order to become a member, you must go through our mandatory orientation and complete a questionnaire and member profile. The orientation will also include instructions on how to access projects.
