Project Overview

Buildchain is a B2B digital platform created to streamline the buying and selling of construction materials between construction companies and material suppliers. Before Buildchain, the procurement process was heavily manual—relying on phone calls, paperwork, and scattered communications. Our mission was to digitize and automate this workflow, making it easier for construction companies to request materials, for suppliers to fulfill those requests, and for both parties to complete verified transactions efficiently.

Buildchain is designed with simplicity and reliability at its core—allowing construction companies to send material requests, receive shipments, verify deliveries with offline surveys, and close trades—all from a centralized platform.

Project Overview

The Challenges

What we faced during work:

Disconnected Workflow & Delayed Transactions: Construction companies struggled with scattered communications and non-standardized procurement processes, often leading to delays, missed shipments, and confusion between buyers and suppliers.

Lack of Trust and Transparency in Material Verification: Once shipments were received, there was no structured way to verify and approve material quality, resulting in disputes and loss of accountability.

The Challenges

What we did in a nutshell.

Work flow scenario:

  • Mapped Out the End-to-End Procurement Journey:We conducted user interviews and research to fully understand the pain points in current workflows from both construction and material companies.
  • Built an Intuitive Multi-Role Platform: Designed clear, role-based dashboards for each user type—construction companies, material suppliers, and admin—each with tailored functionality and permissions.

The Solutions

The outcomes:

We designed a scalable, mobile-responsive SaaS platform that replaced manual processes with automated, transparent workflows. The clean UI guides users through each step of the procurement process—from placing material requests to shipment receipt and trade finalization—with real-time tracking and smart notifications.

Key features include:
  • A Request Management System for streamlined material orders
  • A Shipment & Status Tracker to follow deliveries in real-time.
  • An Offline Material Survey Upload Module for quality control and trade confirmation.
  • Multi-role Dashboards for construction companies, suppliers, and admins.

By focusing on clarity, accountability, and speed, Buildchain enables faster procurement decisions, reduces disputes, and increases operational efficiency.
