How to search for subcontractors you have worked with before

Within BuildingConnected you can search for companies you have worked with before to look up contact information and internal notes such as company reviews, tags, and qualification statuses. This can be done in two ways:

1. The search bar at the top of the screen
2. The Contacts page (BC Pro)

Please note that searching for subcontractors using the Contacts page is a BC Pro feature. If you are interested in learning more about BC Pro, please contact us at [e-mail].


Finding companies using the search bar
The search bar can be located at the top of any page once logged in to BuildingConnected.



Type the name of the company you would like to search for then click on the company from the drop-down menu.



The following window provides a complete overview of company information. The left-hand side contains contact information, work performed, and company location. The right-hand side contains internal information such as company reviews, which are visible to your company only.  This information is useful if you need to reach out to companies directly or look up reviews from previous projects you have worked with them on.




Finding companies using the Contacts page (BC Pro)
Begin by navigating to your Contacts page from the menu on the left-hand side.



Enter the name of the company you would like to search for in the “Find vendors” section.



Click on the company that populates from your search.



On the left-hand side of the company overview window you can view company contact information, location, and business, labor, and enterprise type. The right-hand side contains internal information such as qualification status, company tags, and reviews, which are visible to your company only.
