Demand is flat.
Costs are up.

Home retailers, contractors, manufacturers and distributors are feeling the squeeze. You can't control the consumer, but you can control your indirect spend.

The Current Landscape

Flat Demand

Builders and DIY chains are seeing projects stall. Volume isn't solving the profit problem anymore.

Rising Costs

Materials, labor, and logistics costs remain stubbornly high, eating into what little margin is left.

Consumer Uncertainty

Consumers want to move, home owners want to sell, but neither seems very convinced the moment is right.

Stop leaking profit in "The Indirects"

Suppliers in these categories tend to enjoy robust margins due to the sheer complexity of the services. But these services also require high-management time and home improvement sector procurement professionals simply don't have the resources to effectively manage these expenses. Which ultimately leads to negative impact on the P&L.

Uniforms

Rental programs are notoriously complex and full of hidden fees.

Waste & Recycling

Haul rates fluctuate. Are you paying market rate or a legacy rate?

Security Services

Guards and monitoring costs creep up annually without review.

Pest Control

Essential for lumber yards and warehouses, but often over-billed.

Utilities/Energy

Rate structures are confusing. You're likely overpaying.

Facilities

Maintenance, landscaping, and cleaning contracts add up fast.
