Terms of Use

Effective date: April 20, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the KenHome™ Subcontractor Pre-Qualification Portal at subs.kenhome.group and the associated administrative portal at admin.kenhome.group (together, the “Portal”), operated by KenHome™ Corporation (“KenHome,” “we,” or “us”). By creating an account or submitting an application, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not use the Portal.

1. The Service

The Portal is an access-controlled platform through which qualified subcontractors submit documentation to be evaluated for inclusion in the KenHome™ pre-qualified subcontractor network. Pre-qualification supports, but is not limited to, bid invitations on construction projects for which KenHome serves as general contractor or construction manager.

2. Eligibility and Account

3. Truthful Information and Verification

You agree to provide true, complete, and current information throughout the Portal and to promptly update information that becomes inaccurate. Material misrepresentation, falsification of documents, or omission of disclosures required by the application may result in immediate removal from the pre-qualified network, disclosure to project owners and affected parties, and legal action where appropriate.

By submitting an application, you authorize KenHome to verify any information you provide, including contacting references, banks, sureties, insurance carriers, and regulatory bodies, and to conduct background checks on the company and its principals to the extent permitted by applicable law.

4. Review, Tiering, and Discretion

5. Validity and Renewal

Pre-qualification is valid for twelve (12) months from the date of approval. Renewal requires resubmission of current documentation (including a fresh COI, bonding letter, EMR, financials, and OSHA 300 summary) and re-attestation of the Certification under Section 9. Lapsed pre-qualifications are automatically removed from auto-bid routing until the renewal is completed and approved.

6. Fees

The Portal is offered at no cost at initial launch. KenHome reserves the right to introduce optional verification or maintenance fees in future releases (for example, an annual renewal processing fee to offset third-party verification costs). Any fee introduction will be announced in advance and subject to your acceptance.

7. Confidentiality

Both you and KenHome agree to maintain the confidentiality of non-public business information exchanged through the Portal, including bid opportunities, project specifications, bid-list composition, pricing, and strategy. You agree not to use bid opportunities or bid-list information for any purpose other than submitting your own bid. You agree not to solicit, market to, or recruit personnel from other subcontractors identified in KenHome bid materials.

8. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

9. Certification and Electronic Signature

When you submit an application or renewal, you electronically certify under penalty of perjury that the information provided is true, complete, and accurate to the best of your knowledge. Your typed full name and title at the point of submission, together with the timestamp, truncated IP address, and user agent captured by the Portal, constitute your electronic signature under the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN Act) and applicable state analogues, and bind your company to the representations in the application.

10. Intellectual Property

11. Disclaimers

The Portal is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, KenHome disclaims all warranties, express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, or uninterrupted access. KenHome does not warrant that the Portal will be error-free or that any defect will be corrected. Pre-qualification is not a guarantee of quality, performance, compliance, or financial solvency. Project owners and lenders must conduct their own independent verification.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, KenHome, its officers, directors, employees, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages (including lost profits, lost revenue, lost opportunity, lost goodwill, or business interruption) arising out of or related to the Portal, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, or any other theory, even if KenHome has been advised of the possibility of such damages. KenHome’s aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Portal will not exceed the greater of (a) the total fees (if any) you paid to KenHome for Portal use in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, in which case the limitations above apply to the greatest extent permitted.

13. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless KenHome, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and contractors from and against any third-party claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) any misrepresentation you make in an application or renewal; (c) your violation of applicable law; or (d) any work you perform for any party under or following a bid invitation routed through the Portal.

14. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver

The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Portal through informal written negotiation before initiating any formal proceeding. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days of written notice, the dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, by a single arbitrator, seated in Fort Worth, Texas. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Each party waives any right to resolve disputes on a class, collective, or representative basis. Arbitration shall be conducted on an individual basis.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property, confidential information, or to enforce its rights under Sections 3, 7, 8, and 10.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. KenHome is headquartered in Texas. KenHome operates across all fifty (50) U.S. states and U.S. territories; the governing law of a specific construction project’s jurisdiction, as stated in the subcontract, governs the underlying project agreement. These Terms govern only the pre-qualification relationship and use of the Portal.

16. Termination

KenHome may suspend or terminate your access to the Portal at any time for breach of these Terms, for misrepresentation, safety or compliance concerns, regulatory direction, or for any lawful reason at its discretion. You may close your account by emailing subcontractors@kenhome.group; account closure is subject to the retention schedule in our Data Retention Policy. Sections 3 (second paragraph), 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 17 survive termination.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be announced by email or through the Portal, with an updated effective date above. Your continued use of the Portal after a revision constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Portal.
