Nobody knows the construction industry like us.
We are the only organisation in the country to specialise in construction industry credit information. There are currently 2,500 subscribers exchanging credit information, via our service. Subscribers range in size from multi national companies to sole traders, however, all take the same risk when supplying to the construction industry on a credit basis.
Our service has been described as a national grapevine of information, but it is by no means a unique concept; banks, insurance companies and financial institutions all operate similar information sharing systems.
Subscribers provide us with information regarding their bad debtors and slow payers. Our experienced helpdesk team then keep those Payment Histories and Trading Experiences up-to-date. No other agency provides this type of service to the construction industry.
