Construction companies carrying out professional activities in Russia must become members of a self-regulating construction organization in order to obtain access rights to certain types of work. Membership in the SRO will allow firms to receive certain benefits and at the same time establishes responsibility to the organization.
Advantages of construction companies when joining a self-regulatory organization
By joining the organization and having received the appropriate permit, companies acquire the right to take part in tenders with the subsequent implementation of certain permits for construction work. This applies to the preparation of project documentation with engineering surveys, as well as a complete list of activities specified in order No. 624 dated 30.12.2009.

one. hydraulic structures;

Upon joining the SRO, the company will be entitled to carry out certain types of survey activities, engage in design and energy audit. This applies to geodetic works with design, preparation and implementation of earthworks, roofing and facade operations. It will be allowed to perform installation with the previous manufacture of reinforced concrete and monolithic structures, as well as blasting and drilling activities within the framework of construction.
A variety of installation and commissioning works will become available, access to the arrangement of heat supply, engineering networks, gas and sewerage will be obtained.

Obligations of a construction company when joining a self-regulatory organization
Along with the benefits, a company that has become a member of an SRO becomes forced to perform a number of functions related to maintaining the quality of work performed. This applies to disciplinary measures in case of violation of the charter of the organization. The company is under the vigilant control of the organization, it extends to the quality of work performed, compliance with standards and requirements. If the company violates the rules and complaints are received on the part of customers, then the organization considers them and makes a decision on the adoption of disciplinary measures.
