Insight Data, the leading supplier of business data for the building industry, has opened up new opportunities for suppliers in the commercial and new-build sector by launching the first comprehensive database of major building companies in the UK.
The ‘Construction File’ has detailed information on over 4,800 decision- makers in 1,390 of the UK’s largest construction firms, including property developers, house builders, main contractors and property maintenance companies. Users of the database can instantly search between business types (eg house builders or main contractors) and even market sectors (eg education sector or social housing).
“The construction industry has seen unprecedented re-alignment in the last four years and the number of decision-makers and senior executives who have changed positions is astonishing” explains Sonia Punter, Insight’s Sales Manager.
This is creating a headache for building product suppliers, service providers and the thousands of other companies who supply large construction firms, as the relationships they have built over a number of years are disappearing.
“The market is still challenging but the companies on the Construction File are still purchasing hundreds of millions of pounds in products and services every year. Unfortunately many suppliers are wasting a huge amount of time, money and resources promoting their company or products to decision-makers who have long gone, or to organisations that have ceased trading, merged with someone else or changed sectors, and all that effort is simply ending up in the bin” adds Sonia.
Other databases from Insight Data include architects, small/local builders, double glazing manufacturers and installers, and renewable energy installers.
