CUSTOMARY STANDARD PROPOSALS BY TRADES LIST

Revised July 2015

The Subcontractors Council has developed a Customary Standard Proposals by Trades list. The Council hopes the Customary Standard Proposals by Trades list will assist contractors and subcontractors to be familiar with customary work inclusions and exclusions by each trade. The list does not include all trades however and the Council looks forward to adding other trades to the list.

Please see attached Customary Standard Proposals by Trades list. Should you have any comment or would like to add other trades to the list, please contact Gladys Hagemann at Gladys@gcahawaii.org

The list of Customary Standard Proposals was developed as a guide only and should not be interpreted as an absolute list. click here to view and/or print the list
