		<description>Depending on the type of contract that the owner has with the architect firm, the firm may be in complete control of the building project. Normally the actual construction work is contracted out to a builder or general contractor who manages the project and takes bids from sub-contractors. These sub-contractors normally supply the labor and material to perform their specialized area of construction. You need to find out who the builder is. He will likely already have his own suppliers, but it never hurts to ask. The architect would be the place to start, since they are the ones that write the specifications into the building plans. If you can sell them your product to be specified, then the builder will have no choice but to get bids on your product or an equal one.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;am a contractor</description>
