Engineering specification software a real Plus

Do you market to building services engineers? We showcase the perfect marketing tool for manufacturers and distributors of building services products..

Advertising, direct mail and PR all have their place in the marketing mix of course, but wouldn't it be nice to just cut to the chase and present your products to engineering clients such as Laing O'Rourke, Cundall and Land Securities at the point at which they're writing a specification? That's what NBS Engineering Services does.

Nor are Laing O'Rourke et al unique. Over 150 companies subscribe to NBS Engineering Services, a master specification system that provides technical and product information for use in project specifications. They include most of the UK's top engineering consultancies. Unlike the architectural market, which is dominated by small and medium-sized companies, the building services sector has fewer practices. Each is therefore responsible for buying decisions on a higher proportion of the UK's multi-million pound construction contracts. The competition to influence them is naturally fierce.

Contained within NBS Engineering Services is NBS Plus, a library of manufacturers' product information linked to specific clauses. NBS Plus allows building services engineers to select appropriate products and systems for their projects and specify them with only one click of a mouse. The software automatically adds the chosen manufacturer's details to the project specification, along with any product references and options. The resultant specification is therefore not only accurate and complete, but also substitution-proof. As a means of getting your name in front of specifiers at the point of them making a decision NBS Plus is, quite simply, without rival.

NBS Engineering Services is fully supported by an in-house team of engineers and technical authors. They research and draft all specification text, which is then also regularly checked and updated as required by changes in regulations. The system relieves users of all hassle.

In a 2008 customer satisfaction survey 76 per cent of NBS Engineering Services subscribers described the software as 'essential' to their business. To find out whether it could be as essential to yours contact us today.
