Construction products

Who we work with

We work with manufacturers and distributors of construction products as well as financial institutions looking to invest in this sector. Most of the work we carry out is with the marketing, research, sales or business development functions within our client’s organisations.

We have worked with over 70 clients involved in the manufacture or distribution of construction products and have worked in most sectors of the market from heavyside type products (eg cement, aggregates, bricks, blocks, roof tiles) to lightside (eg lighting, rainwater, plumbing, flooring, ironmongery, joinery) to timber.

Our consultants’ experience

All our consultants have significant consultancy experience in this sector as well as operational experience. This includes Sales and Marketing board positions at RMC (builders merchants division), SGB, Marley, Steetley Brick & Tile and David Webster lighting group.

Their level of operational and consulting experience provides our clients with practical and realistic answers to their issues and enables us to hit the ground running in all projects in this sector.

Leading Edge developed two forecasting models for us, the first to forecast total UK construction output by sector and the other to forecast our own sales by product group. We were extremely pleased with the work, the models give us more confidence and we use them in our business planning. We would definitely recommend using Leading Edge, they have added significant value to our forecasting process.
