(typo for por) by/through contracting
This would be my best guess in the circumstances.

Typing pro for por is one of the most common typos I see in Spanish.

i.e. by/through contracting and subcontracting. It's the only thing I can think of which makes sense here.

The excruciatingly bad use of commas would be par for the course here.

: I don't think Spanish uses the term 'pro' as we would with say pro boxers or wrestlers.

Contractor
There are "pro contratas" (contractors or "contratistas" en ES) and "subcontratas" (subcontractors or "subcontratistas" en ES).
It is not an usual term, but we may come across with it in contracts, namely construction, etc.

Now I am only guessing because this never crossed my path, but could "pro" be something similar to "pro rata", for instance? Maybe it is not a typo. In this sense, something like:
"...the carrying out of public or private works, pro contratas (meaning according to the contracting of Contractors, pass the pleonasm), subconctractors, .... "
