📊Business Analysis

🎯Target Audience

Construction companies, procurement managers, architects, and engineers involved in large-scale infrastructure projects seeking efficient and digital solutions for material procurement.

⚠️Problem Statement

The construction industry faces challenges with manual procurement processes, leading to inefficiencies and increased project timelines. A digital solution is critical to streamline material sourcing and purchasing.

💰Payment Readiness

The construction sector is increasingly recognizing the need for digital transformation. Regulatory pressures to meet project deadlines, combined with the competitive advantage of efficient material procurement, create a strong market readiness to invest in such solutions.

🚨Consequences

Without this solution, companies risk project delays, increased costs due to procurement inefficiencies, and a competitive disadvantage in a rapidly digitizing industry.

🔍Market Alternatives

Currently, companies rely on traditional procurement methods, which lack the agility and personalization offered by digital platforms. Competitors using basic e-commerce platforms do not provide the same level of integration and customization as proposed.

Unique Selling Proposition

Our platform's unique integration of AR try-ons and personalization, combined with seamless payment and search capabilities, sets it apart from basic e-commerce offerings, providing a superior user experience tailored for the construction industry.

📈Customer Acquisition Strategy

We will employ a multi-channel strategy leveraging industry partnerships, targeted digital marketing campaigns, and participation in construction trade shows to acquire customers and build brand awareness within the sector.
