The construction industry in India is a direct indicator of national growth. However, being largely privatized, the industry is fragmented. Only a few major companies provide building material for construction activities across the board; some are medium-sized agencies specializing in niche activities; and finally, there are small and medium contractors who finally execute the work on the field.
Planning, Tracking, visiting, and finalizing different building materials in a project, therefore, becomes an unnecessarily prolonged and haphazard process. Avoiding much of this, and many more cost overruns is possible by procuring building material through digital centralised platforms.
The primary benefits of buying construction material online are:
This vast sea of options and the lack of experience can often be a daunting obstacle. Digitization of the industry, as currently being undertaken by OfBusiness facilitates the process considerably. One of the best avenues for getting your construction material online is raw material procurement and facilitating credit through us. Integrating technology enables us to provide better products, better quality, greater availability, and faster deliveries.
The online construction material market is expected to cross $1 trillion globally by 2030. A pioneer in this field, OfBusiness offers one of the widest arrays of sellers, suppliers, and professional guidance with its extensive databases across India. When it comes to convenience, nothing beats sitting in the comfort of your home, at any hour of the day, and instantly browsing, shortlisting, and purchasing all types of building material as per your requirement.
Through direct sourcing from the manufacturer and buying construction material online skips the hassles of dealing with middlemen as the material is directly delivered to your site and often cost-effective. We have developed a centralized marketplace that functions on fair pricing to increase transparency and productivity. The market functions through you, as we aggregate customer requests, and match them to their respective building material suppliers to offer economies of scale on material pricing, and cheap financing alternatives.
Maintaining stock in a central procurement unit ensures we have the ability to fulfill different orders across different magnitudes. We have also partnered with a number of transport and shipping vendors to select the best possibilities for different locations.
While the COVID crunch has hit the SME industry, it is also one of the fastest recovering sectors. The availability of construction material online, with the range at hand, is a vital force driving this recovery. The other crucial step is access to tested credit lines. Not just limited to selecting the right building material, Ofbusiness also provides different options for sourcing credit. This becomes especially helpful for comparatively modest order sizes, as smaller businesses are more often than not denied traditional cost benefits associated with the scale of the order.
OfBusiness caters to different quantities and requirements, personalizing your order with professional assurance. We value your time, investment, and vision for providing the fastest solutions across the widest range of possibilities, from the comfort of your chair.
While the industry has traditionally been largely unorganized, our intent lies in developing a transparent and strong ecosystem for the most crucial steps in every SME’s journey, its infant years.
