Methodology for Regional Spotlight
Our Regional Spotlight Report breaks down the nine core regions of England, along with construction intelligence covering Scotland and Wales, to provide you with the top 5 projects in each region based on planning applications, planning approvals and contract awards.
Planning approval and contract award intelligence considers the highest value ranked projects from the previous month. Planning applications are presented a month in arrears due to the time delay between the application date and council publication.
Barbour ABI project data collation and qualification methods have been quality assured by the Office for National Statistics.
The volume of projects, companies and contacts on the database has helped Garic’s sales team book initial meetings for projects. As a team we find it especially useful to breakdown the projects into an area, so each account manager has a select number of projects to work on.
I would describe the service received from Barbour ABI as EXCELLENT. Our Account Manager is always available for advice, guidance and on-hand to escalate priority requests when required.
The inclusion of key contact details has enabled me to get in touch with key decision makers and circumvent what can be a frustrating process through company switchboards.
I’ve personally used Barbour-ABI for a number of years and find the data to be excellent. The project specific data within the evolution system is proving essential to growth of my business. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barbour ABI to any of my peers. Quality information, easy to use system, reasonably priced.
Barbour ABI gives us a wider knowledge of construction companies in the UK and gives us the opportunity to build relationships with them.
We always recommend Barbour ABI to all our clients when they are looking for construction project insight. Ali, our Barbour ABI contact is always incredibly helpful in helping me put forward proposals to clients. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!
We have always received a swift, friendly and competent service from our Account Manager, who is always reachable and responsive to our email requests.
Any queries I have on projects are always answered in a timely manner. Barbour ABI helps me understand who my customers are and enables me to cut the time taken to research their details.
The quality of service from Barbour ABI stretches from executive level analysis of market conditions, down to the Research team helping our sales team source granular project information. The way Barbour ABI deliver information to the various appropriate levels of our business has helped us to make more informed decisions and improve our go-to market plans.
The offer of individual support from Barbour ABI that we’ve had for every member of the team, no matter where they are on their digital journey, is hugely appreciated.
