The Builders' Conference and Glenigan have announced the development of the most comprehensive tender and contract award leads service for the UK construction industry.

The Builders' Conference is a trade association of almost a thousand contractors/construction related businesses and as part of their membership receive market intelligence and statistical information on current tenders, main contract awards and specialist sub-contracts.

Glenigan has always operated a dedicated tender research team - and this is being enlarged along with this new data feed from the Builders' Conference.

Managing Director, Mike Woolfrey explained: "By integrating the Builders' Conference information with Glenigan's existing intelligence, our clients will have access to thousands more opportunities at the earliest possible stage and with complete details of the key decision makers on every project."


The six-year contract has already commenced with The Builders' Conference identifying hundreds more refurbishment projects outside of the planning system to complement Glenigan's own research and its complete coverage of every UK planning application and decision.

Neil Edwards, Chief Executive of The Builders' Conference said: "The deal between The Builders' Conference and Glenigan is a real meeting of minds; one that plays to the strengths of both organisations and the synergies between us. Together The Builders' Conference and Glenigan become one of the UK's leading and most comprehensive providers of market intelligence for the building and construction sector."

Glenigan will publish bidder and contract award information on the same day as The Builders' Conference and will match this data with intelligence already gathered by its 100-strong web and phone research team. These shared sources for consultants, building programme, materials and contacts will combine to deliver by far the widest coverage available in the UK.
