Why Your Current Materials Procurement Process is Hindering You

The old way of procuring materials—manually searching for suppliers, making endless phone calls, and comparing quotes on spreadsheets—drains your time, wastes resources, and leaves you vulnerable to missed opportunities.

In today's fast-paced construction environment, these outdated methods slow down your projects, inflate costs, and ultimately make it harder for you to stay competitive. The Build Chain changes the game. With just one simple enquiry form, you can instantly connect with multiple suppliers including your current ones, compare quotes in real time, and streamline your entire procurement process.

The new way is faster, more efficient, and tailored to give you the edge you need to stay ahead of the competition.

Why You Can’t Afford to Ignore Digital

In an industry where margins are tight and deadlines are critical, contractors who are slow to adopt digital procurement risk being left behind. The Build Chain empowers you to make smarter decisions, cut buying times, and keep your projects on track.

By adopting digital solutions like The Build Chain, you:

  • Speed up procurement by reducing admin time
  • Diversify your supplier base to ensure better prices and availability
  • Track and manage everything in one place, ensuring transparency and compliance

Staying competitive in the construction industry means adapting to digital—those who don’t will be outpaced by contractors who are already using platforms like The Build Chain to save time, money, and win more business.

Data-Driven Insights Puts You Ahead in Tenders

Winning tenders is about more than just price. Today, Tier 1 contractors need suppliers who are efficient, forward-thinking, and can provide detailed ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) data to meet public and private sector requirements. If you’re not using a digital platform, you’re missing out on key data that could give you the edge.

The Build Chain helps you:

  • Showcase efficiency: By improving your supply chain, cutting costs, and speeding up procurement, you can price your tenders more competitively and demonstrate better project management
  • Report on sustainability: Many Tier 1 contractors now require suppliers to prove their commitment to sustainability - The Build Chain tracks CO2 emissions and local supply usage, allowing you to showcase your ESG efforts when tendering for work, putting you ahead of the competition
  • Attract more contracts: Contractors who use platforms like The Build Chain are seen as innovative and forward-thinking—the kind of partners Tier 1 contractors want to work with

With The Build Chain, you don’t just gain efficiency—you gain the ability to prove your company is sustainable, data-driven, and ready for the future. That’s the difference that helps you win more tenders and stand out to Tier 1s.
