This rebrand represents our commitment to evolving alongside the construction industry, while staying true to our core mission: connecting builders, subcontractors, and suppliers to make tendering smarter and more efficient.

This rebrand is a new chapter, but our goal remains the same—to strengthen connections and help you work smarter together. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.

We’re proud of our journey so far and can’t wait to continue supporting your success under the E1 banner. Thank you for being part of our story.

We’re excited to announce a major improvement to our Connection Suggestions feature, designed to enhance the number of suggestions you'll see when using the feature.

Previously, the Connection Suggestions page may only have returned a few suggestions when searching for potential matches among the top 100 companies in your Address Book, without surfacing less active matches.

With this update, the feature will now actively search for up to 100 matches every time you access Connection Suggestions.

You’ll now consistently see more connection suggestions if they’re available.

If there are 100 potential matches, you’ll see all 100, no more bottlenecks!

This change ensures a smoother, more efficient experience, helping you build connections faster and more effectively.

Try it out and enjoy the improved results!

Project visibility options have been updated on the New Project Wizard. Note that the functionality is the same, however the wording has changed.

This option will publish your project to the E1 Network with your company name visible to all subcontractors and suppliers with access to E1.

Your project is not discoverable by the E1 Network as it isn't published on the tender noticeboard. Subcontractors and suppliers only gain access to the project details when you send them an invitation.

You can change a project from Private to available to the E1 Network at any time via your Project Details.

Our new project visibility options give your company the ability to gain additional trade coverage from the E1 Network of subcontractors and suppliers.

You can now publish a project as a ‘Private Contractor’, which allows you to remain anonymous to the Network before you approve a subcontractor or supplier's request and release documentation to them.

The E1 Network includes over 12,000 profiled companies across the UK and Ireland looking to price work and engage with new contractors.

This option will publish your project to the E1 Network with your company name visible to all subcontractors and suppliers.

Your company name is hidden until document requests are approved for the requesting subcontractor or supplier.

This option makes your project available to the E1 Network, with your company name set as ‘Private Contractor’, allowing subcontractors and suppliers to request packages from you. They will see your business details only when approved.

Your project is not discoverable by the E1 Network as it isn't published on the tender noticeboard. Subcontractors and suppliers only gain access to the project details when you send them an enquiry.

The below images show the Network view of an E1 Network project published as a private contractor:

If you accidentally publish a project to the E1 Network, please contact support@estimateone.co.uk to change the visibility.

You can change a project from Private to available to the E1 Network at any time via your Project Details.
