Problem with financing from construction materials suppliers

Materials Costs are Inflated by Expensive Financing

Supplier financing is expensive and unavoidable. Subcontractors of all sizes depend heavily upon construction materials suppliers to finance purchases.

Difference in financing cost as provided by materials suppliers to subcontractors in much higher than financing provided by project owners

financing access for subcontractors is a problem

Financing Access is Limited

Credit availability is limited or unavailable for many. Subcontractors that are small or from underrepresented groups are subject to barriers that reflect both commercial realities and human bias

SBE and UBE have limited access to trade credit and are unbanked

Owners Insert Their Financing to Remove Obstacles and Create Opportunity

Eliminate financing duplication costs and financing barriers: Chipi enables owners to insert their capital into the construction materials purchasing process risk-free. This eliminates a layer of financing costs and creates financing access for targeted subcontractors and suppliers.

Chipi enables subcontractors to enter materials quotes from a chosen supplier into an approvals, funding custody, and payment process that alleviates the need for financing by having owner make payments for materials purchases

Owner Earns Income

property owner generates income inserting its capital into materials purchasing

Financing Barriers and Payment Speed Become Irrelevant

Financing problems are intercepted and resolved. Project risks born of contractors’ liquidity challenges are addressed at day 1

Chipi's solution is faster than factoring, reverse factoring, dynamic discounting, supply chain finance, invoice finance, PO financing, receivables finance, net 15 payment plans, and payment applications

Small subcontractors are poorly capitalized and have little access to banking so they are vulnerable to financial distress which introduces project risks that you can mitigate from the start

Eliminate Project Problems Born of Subs Financial Pressure

Liquidity scarcity creates chaos.

Subcontractor liquidity pressures manifest as project challenges in many ways.

For example, delaying materials orders until the very last moment is a technique by subs to save either cash or debt capacity.

This ordering delay risks delivery delays – a common reason schedules are missed.
