Serving Western Canada · Strategic sourcing

Sourced at a fair price, so you keep more margin.

Where the price actually comes from.

Stocking distributors carry inventory so you can get material fast, and you pay for that warehouse on every order. We source on demand for major projects, with no inventory to carry, fewer steps and lower overhead. Both have a place. On planned, large-volume work, ours costs less.

How we earn

We only make money when you save. Our business is beating the price you already have from a major distributor, so our margin comes out of that gap. If we cannot come in under your number, there is nothing for us to sell.

    Markets

    We buy the order, not the shelf

    Each order goes out to the mills, manufacturers and markets that can hold your spec, and the order is placed with whoever holds it at the strongest price. Nothing here comes off a single shelf at a single list price.

  2. 02

    Staging

    We split the buy across your build

    Long lead items are placed first so the date holds. Material you need in three months is bought on your schedule, not on ours and not on the market's.

  3. 03

    Open book

    We show you every line

    Material, freight and duties are priced on their own lines with a date the number holds to, so you can see exactly what you are paying and hold us to it.

  4. 04

    Provenance

    We buy nothing we cannot trace

    Mill test reports, heat numbers and country of origin come with the order wherever the spec calls for them. Sourcing wide does not mean sourcing loose.

  5. 05

    Your margin

    We only win if you save

    Our price has to beat the one you already have, because our margin is the spread inside it. Everything below that gap stays in your job as margin you keep.

Watch every order as it moves.

Once your order is placed we follow it through the mill and onto the truck, and each status change reaches you close to real time. You can schedule crews and lifts around a date that is current today, not one from last week.

  • →A date that slips arrives with the reason and the new one

Set per account

Your distributor's number reflects what they paid some time ago and what they need to earn on the item, and it carries the cost of their warehouse and everyone between them and the mill. We quote from your spec, buy across markets, and run with fewer middle parties and lower overhead, so our number comes in tighter and the detail behind it is on the quote.

It depends on the material and the week, so we will not promise you a percentage. What we promise is a sourced price rather than a list price, and a quote that shows every line so you can check the number yourself.

We earn on the gap. Our margin is the spread between what we can source the order for and the landed price on your quote, so if we do not come in under the number you already have, there is no deal for either of us. Fewer middle parties and lower overhead means less that has to be built into it.

Every quote carries a valid until date. Where the market allows, we can hold pricing longer or stage purchases to protect your number.

We tell you before you find out. Updates reach you as each order moves, and if a date moves you get the new date, the reason, and what we are doing about it, in time to reschedule the work around it.

Your next order, sourced properly.
