How material suppliers use SiteLens

See projects 12–18 months before tender

Most material suppliers only meet a project at tender or main-contractor shortlist — by which point the material category is already specified into the drawings. SiteLens alerts you the day the application appears on the planning register, while the spec is still open. Free tier, daily alerts on Pro.

Filter by material category, scale and region

Pick the residential, commercial, industrial or infrastructure work that actually needs your product. Set a minimum project size, a postcode radius, or a council group. Skip the conservatories and single-storey extensions — see only the schemes worth quoting.

Mainstream and specialist trades alike

From volume products like bricks, insulation and roofing systems through to specialist categories — Crittall and steel-frame glazing, sash and timber windows, bronze architectural, conservation-area and listed-building work. Set keyword alerts on the niche your range serves and the matching applications land in your inbox.
