Material price rise to protected margin on fixed-price work
We take off your hands: watching material prices and tariffs, checking what fixed-price work is still to buy and finding ways to buy early or switch.
You get: a list of unbought packages at risk, options to buy early, combine orders or use approved alternatives, and a decision brief for your directors.

The problem
We priced the job fixed and watched material prices climb on everything we hadn't bought yet.
How the steps join up
It starts when: material prices or tariffs start moving against your fixed-price work.
Track material prices and warn about rises on the materials the company buys most
Warn buyers when tariffs or trade rules will change material prices
Show the company's exposure to material price rises on fixed-price work not yet bought
Combine material orders across live jobs to win better volume prices
Find approved alternative products and suppliers when an item is late or unavailable
Your team checks and decides at this step.
Prepare a decision brief before a major director decision
Your team checks and decides at this step.
What you end up with: Directors see which packages not yet bought are exposed, buy early or combine orders where it pays, switch to approved alternatives, and decide how to protect margin.
Who signs it off: Your commercial director approves forward buying and any claims, and your designers approve substitutions.

If those aren’t in place yet, you’ll hear that before anything gets built.
Who it’s for
- Main contractors
- Specialist subcontractors
