🔍 Problem
The construction materials industry in Colombia has long been plagued by inefficiencies and a lack of transparency. The process of procuring construction materials is often time-consuming and confusing, having to work with dozens of suppliers to find all the necessary materials. These issues lead to delays and cost overruns. Additionally, small and medium-sized construction materials companies struggle to compete with larger players due to their limited access to resources and information.
