The construction industry has always been built on relationships: the crews who trust one another, the contractors who know who to call and the suppliers who help keep jobs moving. Today, those relationships also need a place to grow online.
That is why Hewson Brothers Building Supply is proud to sign on as a Founding Supply Partner with Projekt Network, a professional and social platform created specifically for skilled tradespeople and the construction industry.
Projekt Network brings tradespeople, contractors, construction companies, employers, suppliers and manufacturers together in one focused community. It gives the people who build our communities a place to show their work, receive credit for it, make valuable connections and discover new opportunities.
A Professional Network Built for the Trades
Most professional platforms are centred around job titles, office careers and traditional resumes. Construction works differently. In the trades, your reputation is built through the quality of your work, the projects you have completed and the people who have worked beside you.
Projekt Network allows members to build profiles around real-world experience. Tradespeople can share photos from completed jobs, list their skills and certifications, connect with others in the industry and create a portfolio that shows what they can do. Businesses can publish projects, credit their crews and project partners, promote their capabilities and connect with potential employees, subcontractors and suppliers.
It is a platform designed to make the construction community more visible, more connected and easier to navigate.
The Benefits for Tradespeople
Whether someone is an experienced tradesperson, an apprentice entering the workforce or a skilled worker looking for their next opportunity, Projekt Network provides a place to build a professional presence based on proof.
- Showcase completed work through photos, videos and project details.
- Build a professional portfolio without relying on a traditional resume.
- Add trades, skills, experience, licences, training and certifications.
- Connect with crews, contractors, employers, suppliers and other industry professionals.
- Explore nearby projects and discover employment opportunities.
- Carry examples of real work directly into the application process.
Creating a profile is free, and members can continue adding to it as their experience and project history grow.
The Benefits for Contractors and Construction Businesses
For contractors and construction companies, the platform creates a central place to present the business, its people and its work. Instead of leaving years of strong project photos buried in a camera roll, businesses can turn them into an accessible portfolio that helps potential clients, employees and partners understand what they do.
- Create a public business page featuring trades, service areas, crew members and completed projects.
- Post projects and credit the tradespeople, subcontractors and suppliers who helped deliver them.
- Increase online discoverability through public, searchable business and project pages.
- Find tradespeople by location, experience, qualifications and examples of their work.
- Connect with subcontractors and suppliers for upcoming projects.
- Post hiring opportunities and review candidates through their real project experience.
For smaller contractors without a dedicated website, a Projekt Network business page can also provide a professional place to send customers and industry contacts. For established companies, it adds another credible digital touchpoint and helps make the work—and the people behind it—easier to find.
