Project-driven procurement intelligence for contractors, developers, and infrastructure companies.
Building and construction procurement is uniquely complex — every project is its own procurement event, with a bill of quantities, dozens of subcontractors, and material schedules tied to construction milestones. Commodity price swings, subcontractor qualification, progress billing disputes, and retentions make this one of the most financially exposed procurement environments in any industry. Proconomy brings structured, AI-powered procurement to the full project lifecycle — from early-stage material planning through to final payment.
These are the procurement problems that cost building & construction manufacturers time, money, and compliance risk every day.
Awarding work packages to subcontractors involves assessing financial health, past performance, safety records, licences, and insurance coverage — yet most contractors manage this through emails and paper files. Unqualified subcontractors create safety incidents, quality failures, and contract disputes that derail project schedules and expose the main contractor to liability.
Procurement teams operate separately from project planning — buying materials on ad-hoc requisitions rather than against a schedule-driven material plan. This causes late deliveries to site, emergency spot buys at premium prices, and excess inventory sitting on-site for months ahead of when it is actually needed.
Subcontractor progress claims, variation orders, and retention releases create complex invoice matching scenarios that manual processes cannot keep pace with. Disputed invoices are common, payment delays strain subcontractor relationships, and finance teams lack a clear audit trail to resolve disagreements quickly.
Steel rebar, ready-mix concrete, structural timber, copper cable, and glass are the backbone of construction cost — and all are subject to significant price volatility driven by energy costs, trade tariffs, and global demand cycles. Without commodity-aware procurement, project cost plans become unachievable mid-project.
Large contractors run dozens of simultaneous projects, each managed independently. Spend on civil works, MEP, finishes, and fit-out is fragmented across project teams — making it impossible to aggregate supplier volumes, negotiate framework agreements, or identify maverick spend without a unified procurement platform.
LEED, GRIHA, and WELL certification requirements demand supply chain evidence — EPDs, recycled content declarations, carbon footprint data, and fair labour compliance. Gathering this from dozens of subcontractors and material suppliers through email is slow, incomplete, and not audit-ready.
Purpose-built features and Agentic AI working together to eliminate the most costly building & construction procurement problems.
Structured digital prequalification covering financial health, safety records, ISO 45001 certification, past performance, and insurance. The Supplier Onboarding Agent guides subcontractors through submission, flags missing documents, and maintains an audit-ready qualification record for every approved trade.
Material requirements linked to construction programme milestones. The Demand Forecast Agent generates material requisitions based on project schedules, applies lead time buffers, and produces base, optimistic, and pessimistic procurement plans — eliminating last-minute spot buys.
Subcontractor progress claims matched against certified work quantities, purchase orders, and site confirmation records. The Invoice Exception Agent investigates mismatches, identifies root causes, and routes disputes to the right approver with full supporting evidence.
Market price benchmarking for steel, cement, timber, copper, and glass integrated into sourcing decisions. The Spend Analysis Agent identifies forward buying opportunities, flags supplier quotes above market, and surfaces commodity hedging recommendations before price spikes impact project budgets.
Unified spend view across all active projects by trade package, supplier, and commodity. The Category Strategy Agent identifies volume bundling opportunities, recommends framework agreement candidates, and flags maverick spend across project teams.
Structured collection of EPDs, recycled content data, carbon footprint declarations, and fair labour compliance documentation from subcontractors and material suppliers. LEED/GRIHA compliance evidence generated on demand — audit-ready at all times.
These agents run autonomously in the background — monitoring, analysing, and acting so your team doesn't have to.
