Billd, STACK Construction Technologies Announce Integration to Aid Subcontractors

New integration said to help increase bid volume, secure working capital, and strengthen supplier relationships

Stack - Build - TOF.jpg — Billd offers 120-day terms on material purchases, allowing subcontractors to improve their cash flow and take on larger projects.

Billd, a construction payment provider for commercial trade contractors, and STACK Construction Technologies, a construction software platform, announced they had enhanced their partnership to help subcontractors grow their business.

Billd's financing solutions are now embedded in STACK's Takeoff and Estimating platform, allowing subcontractors to instantly access working capital during preconstruction. According to a release from the companies, the new integration can empower subcontractors to increase bid volume, secure working capital, and strengthen supplier relationships, accelerating business growth without financial constraints.

"We encourage all of our customers to think about working capital availability, and if necessary, financing costs, as early as possible," said Billd CEO and Founder Chris Doyle. "This integration equips subcontractors to be proactive about project finances and bid, plan, and make promises to customers confidently, knowing that financial backing is readily available."

Supply chain finance has been historically unfair to subcontractors, leaving them footing the bill for materials and labor far before they're paid for their work. Subcontractors wait twice as long as industry peers to be paid, averaging 74 days (almost two and a half months) after starting a project.

By leveraging Billd Connect, Billd's suite of embedded financing apps, STACK will provide access to working capital solutions to their customers while they estimate the cost of upcoming projects. STACK's software empowers contractors with accurate and customizable estimates, reducing the risk of underestimating costs and overextending resources. Meanwhile, Billd's material and invoice financing bridge the gap in subcontractor cash flow, reducing the risk of overextending working capital. By providing subcontractors with accurate takeoffs and estimates along with upfront funds for materials, joint customers can mitigate the uncertainties of payment cycles and bid with confidence.

"The integration of construction technology is no longer a luxury — it's a necessity," said STACK's CEO and Co-Founder Phillip Ogilby. "The construction industry has been plagued by subcontractors not getting paid on time, leading to disruptions, delays, and stalled growth. Our streamlined takeoff, estimating, and proposal solutions paired with Billd's financing options mean subs can focus on what matters. Taking the guesswork out with accurate estimates and having predictable revenue is a huge win. I wish I had this growth opportunity when I was a roofing contractor."

Billd offers 120-day terms on material purchases, allowing subcontractors to improve their cash flow and take on larger projects, get more estimates out the door, and focus on investing in their long-term plans.
