contractor

A contractor is a person or company hired to perform specific tasks or complete projects, often in construction, renovation, or maintenance. They manage the execution of work, hire subcontractors if needed, and ensure that projects meet agreed-upon standards and timelines. Contractors can be involved in various sectors, not just construction, including IT and consulting, where they deliver specialized services. Typically, they operate under a contract, detailing the scope of work, pricing, and deadlines, providing clients with a structured approach to achieving their goals.
