Member Benefits

Builders Exchange of Kentucky offers many services and benefits to firms in the industry. The list below, while not comprehensive, gives a recap of the primary services that are offered. Contact the Exchange for additional information.



1. The Exchange provides an online planroom where members can access all of our construction project information 24 hours a day, 7 day a week. Plans, specs and addenda may also be viewed online. The Exchange includes the most comprehensive coverage of Kentucky and Southern Indiana and reports on approximately 3,000 commercially bidding projects annually as well as hundreds of leads on projects not yet out for bid.



2. The Exchange provides plan rooms in Louisville and Lexington where members may review plans and specs that are on file. Plan Room hours are 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Monday Through Friday.

3. Plans may be taken out of the plan room for overnight and weekend use on a reservation basis. Plans reserved may be picked up between 4:15 P.M. and 5:00 P.M. and must be returned by 8:30 A.M. the next day except for the weekend period.



4. Printers and copiers are available for printing sheets of specifications at a nominal charge.
