Why B2G?

Because our levy is low at just 1% per invoice, and there are no access fees, annual fees or project registration fees. We keep it low, and always will, because we strongly believe your budget should be spent on property, not procurement. 

Because we set a high bar. We don’t artificially limit numbers, because our threshold ensures that suppliers without proven competence or capability exclude themselves. Our suppliers are reliable and trustworthy, with the certification and case histories to prove it. 

Because our specification is robust and flexible, leveraging our direct experience delivering public works as both client and contractor, it combines flexibility to suit a wide range of requirements with the assurance of build quality and compliance with all regulations and standards.

Because we deliver commercial value for buyers and suppliers. Buyers need cost control and competitive pricing. Suppliers need sustainable profit. Our approach delivers both, adhering to the UK.gov Should Cost Model, with benchmarks that demonstrate value for money.

Because we deliver social value as standard. Our suppliers commit to supporting all measures set out in the Considerate Constructors Scheme's Social Value Checklist which relate to employment, supply chain, supplier, equipment and community engagement programmes.

Because buyers can direct award any contract to any supplier confident they will deliver to a quality that meets or exceeds all regulations and standards, at a competitive price, and in full support of the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 - embodying the principles of MEAT.
