As a construction supplier, you know only too well how complex the networks of relationships in the industry are – this complicates decision-making processes, as access to the actual decision-makers is often very difficult. But price pressure is also steadily increasing and deadlines are getting tighter and tighter. In addition, there is global competition and regionally differing cost factors – all of these factors depress the earnings situation of manufacturers.

This is precisely why it is essential that information is collected, structured, condensed and made available to all parties involved at a very early stage. In addition, all complex processes along your value chain must be mapped seamlessly – this is crucial for success. Get fit for the digital future and increase the productivity of your entire value chain.

Do you have any questions? We have the answers!

As a construction supplier, you are particularly dependent on fast response times and precise information. By using a CRM system, you connect all processes along your value chain. In concrete terms, this means that every employee, from marketing to sales and customer service, has a holistic view of all customer and contact information and can use it efficiently. The 360° view of your customers is the basis for networked services and contributes significantly to the success of your company.

Summary:

  • End-to-end and transparent process from initial contact to invoicing
  • 360° view of customers and properties
  • Optimal Object Qualification and Object Tracking
  • Efficient and informative sales through direct access to all customer and property information
  • Effective marketing campaigns through target group-specific selection options

The “digital customer” is also a reality in construction today. More and more builders, architects and planners are going online and getting information online. In addition, increasing digitalization is creating new sales channels that may permanently change the established three-stage sales channel. That’s why it’s becoming increasingly important to actually know your target group and their customer journey and, ideally, to actively help shape it. The resulting transparency in the view of the customer requires a future-proof data model as well as a consistent system-side mapping. And this is exactly where an integrated CRM plays a central role in enabling a “true 360° view of the customer. Information from sales and service can thus be made available, for example, to .dem marketing in order to provide targeted target groups with information. Those who consistently pursue this approach will increase their market success measurably and permanently.

In times when land is in short supply, projects are delayed and processors are more focused on standard solutions, it is becoming increasingly important to get new project information at a very early stage. Once the relevant decision-makers have been identified, it is important to provide them with appropriate information in a targeted and consistent manner and to build relationships. This is the only way to give you the opportunity to place product features and complete system solutions very early in the planning process and thus increase your chances of success.

In order to achieve end-to-end processes and support your sales team in their daily work in the best possible way, your CRM should be able to map at least the following points:

  • Central management of objects, customers and business partners
  • Audience & Campaign Management
  • Object Lead Management
  • Object tracking and 360° view of your objects and customers
  • Relationship & Contact Management
  • Mobile CRM for Field Service
  • Dashboards & Analytics
  • Seamless integration with SAP ERP
