"Comprehensive market intelligence, improved online offering, good customer service, fair price. By making Barbour ABI’s online system central to our sales strategy and putting measures in place to ensure that staff use the information available, we have increased revenue year on year"
Mark Swain, Fusion People Ltd
Whatever your role within the construction project lifecycle, our construction intelligence products and services are guaranteed to help you.
We are the leading provider of UK construction contracts information, which is best utilised through our Evolution service. Evolution is the perfect lead delivery mechanism, you simply tell us what areas of the construction industry you wish to target, and then log in online to view your tailored project information.
Your business needs are extremely important to us. To help you visualise how our construction data can help you to win more business, take a look at the key roles below:
Whether you supply aggregates to the whole of the UK or specialist construction products within a handful of UK counties, we can supply you with leads at all stages within the project lifecycle. We also track material usage and can create bespoke reports enabling you to plan your supply strategy around market trends.
With circulation figures to architects of 20,000+, our Barbour Product Search and Barbour Compendium online and printed directories complement our sales leads service perfectly and offer unique marketing opportunities no other advertiser can offer.
Barbour ABI's project data can tell you about every project meeting your criteria when it reaches contract awarded stage - allowing you to proactively approach contractors to secure your role on site.
Whether your organisation works at a national or regional level, we can supply project development and contact details of sub-contractors who have just been awarded work enabling you to make the first approach.
Barbour ABI can supply sales leads with contact details of sub-contractors who have won work with planned project start dates. Our detailed contact data - the majority of which include individual email addresses and direct telephone numbers - ensures you minimise the time spent just making contact. Our project data also ensures you know the background to the project before you make your sales approach.
Monitor your best clients, monitor your target clients! If you specialise in finding jobs for the right candidates in construction, we can tell you about all projects and, more importantly, the companies involved, along with detailed contact information for fast and effective searching and targeting.
We can provide you with a complete view of planned UK construction work allowing you to track the success of your own practice against your competitors, review the latest projects and understand how your clients are working within the industry.
Barbour ABI can help you keep track of the latest civils and infrastructure developments, as well as tender opportunities as they arise, with the most comprehensive coverage of projects and the industry available.
Our sales lead service can alert you when planning approval has been granted on land, or you could use Analytics to understand the trends within your market down to county and sector level.
Barbour ABI can help you to win new business by providing up to the minute project data detailing the key individuals involved from the architect and/or client details through to other potential bidders.
Barbour ABI leads can provide a wide range of "change data" to you, indicating needs as diverse as finance required for household improvements (e.g. an extension or conservatory) through to understanding likely population growth based on planned new build activity. Our detailed data allows you to add a personal touch to your marketing effort and our 100% coverage of planned projects ensures you can be sure of the complete picture.
As the trend towards out of town retail parks grows, retailers can benefit from using our sales lead service by knowing about potential outlet opportunities at an early stage.
