Building companies and property operators, $284 billion TAM in Latam, and their hundreds of thousands of providers.

Builders spend 50% of their income on procurement. 80% of their projects have significant cost overruns, 60% of the companies do not plan their purchases, and therefore $4B dollars every year are being wasted.

Licify is a market network that connects large builders with a wide variety of curated /financially rated providers of goods and services to help them make the best purchasing processes. In our product, they can plan their procurement for each project and keep track of it vs. their budget, create, upload, negotiate and close bids, and even buy materials directly in our marketplace. We offer a 360-degree solution that saves them up to 7.4%, making the process simple, transparent, and efficient.
