Education: Are You Really in Control of Your Procurement?
Procurement is one of the most overlooked areas when it comes to improving construction performance. While most subcontractors and house builders focus on labour, materials, and timelines—few stop to assess whether their buying process itself is helping or hurting them.
Think about it. Are your material orders truly optimised? Are you comparing multiple suppliers or just sticking to the same ones out of habit? Is your team wasting time chasing quotes, juggling emails, or navigating supplier delays?
These inefficiencies don’t just cause stress—they cost you money.
That’s where The Build Chain comes in.
The Build Chain is a digital procurement platform built specifically for subcontractors, house builders, and site buyers. We connect users with local merchants, streamline the buying process, speed up quote comparisons, and centralise supplier communications—all in one place. It’s fast, simple, and tailored to the construction industry.
Now, we’re offering something new: a free, interactive score tool that helps you uncover inefficiencies and unlock your procurement potential in just 2 minutes.
Whether you’re managing three sites or ten, this tool gives you immediate clarity on what’s working—and what’s not.
