Stop buying like one company.
Lower material costs through bulk buying, national vendor pricing, and better terms with suppliers and service providers.
The volume is the network's. The pricing is yours.
A single independent contractor negotiates with a supplier once a year, using one company’s volume as leverage. The supplier knows exactly how much that is worth.
The Alliance negotiates on behalf of every member at once. The terms that come back are available to each member company — including the ones whose individual volume would never have earned them.
You still buy from your own supplier relationships, on your own schedule, for your own jobs. What changes is the number at the top of the invoice.
Where it applies
Materials
Liquid asphalt, aggregate, sealer, striping materials and consumables — the line items that move most with volume.
Equipment & fleet
Group terms on purchases and replacements rather than negotiating one unit at a time.
Fuel
A cost that reprices constantly and is rarely negotiated by a single company.
Insurance & bonding
Programs available to the group rather than to whichever member happens to have the best broker.
Back office & services
The vendors every contractor uses and nobody re-shops until a renewal jumps.
We don’t publish a savings percentage.
Any number we printed here would be an average of businesses that don’t look like yours, buying materials you may not use, in markets you don’t serve. What we’ll do instead is look at your actual spend and tell you honestly whether the group can beat it.
