Case Study: Buy A Beam streamlines structural beam procurement with One Beyond's web store and mobile app

New Startup Buy A Beam Brings the ‘Just Eat’ Digital Marketplace Model to Structural Beams Procurement with Web Store & App built by One Beyond

The customer, Buy A Beam, was a new venture aiming to innovate the construction industry by creating an online marketplace for structural beams. Their challenge was overcoming the traditional, slow, and cumbersome procurement process, which prevented contractors from getting instant quotes and required them to visit fabricators in person. The vendor, One Beyond, was engaged to develop a digital solution.

One Beyond created a bespoke web store and mobile app for Buy A Beam, facilitating a streamlined, 24/7 purchasing process with automated order processing and instant quotes. The solution enabled customers to easily select local suppliers, customize products, and manage orders digitally. As a result, Buy A Beam forecasted a significant measurable impact: the potential to capture £1 million in purchases per month by removing a major industry bottleneck for both buyers and suppliers.
