New SaaS features offer a simple way to confront ongoing material price increases<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

AUSTIN, TEXAS\u2014May 17, 2022<\/strong> \u2013Buildxact (stage.buildxact.com<\/a>), a global SaaS company providing a simple solution for custom home builders to better manage and grow their business, announced today a set of features to boost collaboration<\/a> between builders and their material dealers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now available is an expansion to the Buildxact subscription model. The new, more inclusive model allows dealers<\/a>, at no upfront cost, to accept invitations to join their builder\u2019s Buildxact account so they can accurately estimate the cost of custom home builds and execute those projects in an efficient and timely manner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the builder\u2019s invite, dealers can send accurate material pricing information<\/a> into their customers\u2019 online workflows and suggest improvements to their material purchases using Buildxact\u2019s improved Collaborative RFQ tool<\/a>. When needed, dealers can also assist with preconstruction tasks, like takeoffs, which raises the level of service while also giving dealers a way to grow the value of their accounts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe digital improvements we are bringing to the builder and dealer are coming at a critical time,\u201d David Murray, CEO of Buildxact, said. \u201cOur dealers are in a prime position to help custom home builders manage the global supply chain uncertainty that exists in today\u2019s market. With these upcoming releases, both builder and dealer will have a highly efficient digital platform to get more done while retaining profitability and growth.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the new subscription model, builders<\/a> can invite their dealer of choice to join the Buildxact platform either by submitting a digital quote request or via an online invitation to collaborate on jobs. Once accepted, the dealer can instantly begin working with the builder. Accurate dealer pricing can be shared 24\/7 so that builders can make purchasing decisions at a time that is best for them. Using Epicor\u2019s BisTrack Solution<\/a>, dealers can easily share price files directly from their ERP<\/a> to be confident their builder has the most up-to-date information during times when material prices frequently fluctuate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOver time, dealers and builders who work on this platform will see greater efficiencies,\u201d Steve Yates, Buildxact Executive Vice President, said. \u201cFor instance, dealers can aggregate builder data<\/a> to create predictive models of builder demand and needs. With these in place, dealers can anticipate the needs of their customers and raise their level of service. And the builder will find as transactions with the dealer ease, they can bid more work and win more jobs.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
