What is Market Insights?
E1’s Market Insights product enables you to understand how the commercial tender market has performed over the last five quarters in terms of the volume of tenders and the average tender project budgets, at a national, state and category level.
The intention is for this to provide you with context for your own sales results, and to assist in identifying areas of opportunity.
Market Insights is included in our Professional Plus Supplier package
Where can I access Market Insights in the E1 Dashboard?
Once logged into your E1 account, navigate to the Insights Tab. Once Insights has been clicked, select the Market tab below which will populate with the Market Insights data.
How should I best use Market Insights?
The best way to gain value from Market Insights is to look at the trends in the data, and compare this to your own sales data to see if you are following market trends, potentially outperforming the market, or have opportunities for growth. For example, do you need to focus your sales efforts in a particular state? Is there an opportunity for growth in another state?
You can use the tooltips in Market Insights to prompt your thinking for questions to ask yourself and learn from the data.
Where does the Market Insights data come from?
Market Insights utilises the information from all the public commercial tenders listed on the E1 platform, based on the information provided to E1 by builders.
Which months are included in which quarters?
Quarters run with the calendar year. For example, Q1 comprises of January, February and March.
How often are the charts updated?
The charts are updated quarterly. At 8am on the first day of the next quarter a new quarterly data point will be added. For example, at 8am on 1 October 2022, Q3 2022 data will be added to the charts.
How can I export/ download/print the charts?
