Inprova Commercial Procurement (ICP) is a new procurement group designed to help regional SME housebuilders and contractors save money across their materials spend with national merchants such as CEF, Huws Gray, Jewson, JTC Furniture Group and Wolseley.
ICP has been set up by Inprova Group which claims to buy £0.4bn worth of products every year for over 1,100 organisations, with a particular focus on building materials for the housing industry.
ICP is leveraging its relationships with manufacturers and merchants for building SMEs and will provide pre‐negotiated prices for a broad range of products via a dedicated portal. Once an ICP member, clients order directly from merchants, accessing their ICP negotiated prices using their normal terms, such as cash at point of sale or credit account.
