Access Coins’ Role in the Success of the UK’s Leading Housebuilders

Access Coins Customers: A Dominant Force in UK Housebuilding 

Like years prior, this year’s HMI report showcases the top 75 UK housebuilders, measured by turnover, offering insights into their performance, challenges, and opportunities.  

Access Construction is proud to report that 43 of the top 75 homebuilders listed are Coins customers, solidifying Coins’ position as the ERP of choice for the industry’s most prominent players.  

Within the report, Coins customers account for: 

  • £29.8 billion (72%) of the total £41.3 billion housing turnover generated by the top 75. 
  • £3.7 billion (71%) of the total £5.2 billion operating profit (pre-exceptional) reported. 

…and were responsible for 99,869 homes completed, representing more than 75% of total units delivered by the top 75 housebuilders. 

As the housing market navigates this era of change, we are proud to see Access Coins customers are leading the way, with the Top 5 housebuilders in the UK all being powered by Access Coins

Furthermore, of the reported 190k new homes built by all UK homebuilders, Access Coins customers were responsible for building over half of all new homes in the UK (over 100k+ homes). 

At its core, Access Coins is designed to empower customers by streamlining business management, helping them manage margins, mitigate risks, and deliver projects successfully. 

With tools tailored to manage complexity, improve decision-making, and enable delivery at scale, Access Coins ensures its customers remain resilient in the face of industry challenges.

Adapting to an Era of Transition 

The 2024 HMI report paints a vivid picture of an industry at a turning point. As Brian Green reports in his executive summary, housebuilders face a critical choice: prepare for a fundamental, disruptive transformation or adapt incrementally to the evolving business environment. 

For Access Coins customers, the ability to respond flexibly and strategically to this environment is enhanced by a consolidated software suite that that supports the entire project lifecycle. 

From managing construction projects and streamlining financial reporting, to adapting to emerging demands such as sustainability and Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), Access Coins is at the forefront of innovation. 

Modern Methods of Construction are designed to tackle challenges like low productivity and trade skill shortages, through processes such as Modular Construction and 3D Printing. 

ERP systems, such as Access Coins play a critical role in supporting the adoption of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) by providing the tools to streamline processes, reduce waste, and manage complex supply chains.  

With an integrated platform, housebuilders can efficiently track project costs, monitor materials, and manage production schedules, ensuring the seamless delivery of MMC components. 

 

Empowering Industry Leaders 

Access Coins are proud to be partnered with the UK’s leading housebuilders, as they lead the industry in a time of transition. 

As Brian Green, editor of the HMI report, aptly concludes:

“Change is afoot. It might prove to be a transition to a new and different housing market. It might just be another passing phase with a return to business as usual. Either way, there are likely to be opportunities and threats aplenty.” 

At the forefront of this evolution, Access Coins enables housebuilders to seize opportunities and overcome challenges. With 43 of the top 75 housebuilders relying on Coins ERP to power their businesses, the future of the UK housing market is in capable hands.
