Announcement Content:

Today BuildingApprovals.com was accepted as the first start-up in residence at SPUR @ Landgate. This partnership with Landgate and SPUR as the data providers and analysists of data we expect to strengthen and accelerate our business. This collaboration between government and start-ups from the private industry is the essential partnership required to make the next round of unicorns as described in Steve Case's book "The Third Wave An Entrepreneur's Vision of the Future".

BuildingApprovals.com is proud and excited to be admitted as the first company through the doors at SPUR.

BuilingApprovals.com, the Building Permit Automation tool, also took the time at this presentation to announce a breakaway part of their product. They have named this new product “Builder's E-Commerce” (http://buildersecommerce.com.au/).

The user interface built for BuildingApprovals.com platform was found to have other commercial value. Builder's E-commerce is e-commerce platform that is white labelled and is to be branded to any to a Builder's branding. It allows any consumer to drag and drop premade building plans onto a plot of land and check planning restrictions. Builder's E-Commerce has not been made to sell building contracts. However, it is being used to sell "Preparations of Plans Agreements" also known as PPAs. These are agreements the majority of residential builders use to commission building plans, soil testing, feature surveys and architectural drawings. After builders have all of this information and their clients, have selected their fittings and fixtures they then can provide them with a building contract and a price.

Builder’s E-Commerce can be used to attract leads for the builders and eventually signing up customers to a PPA. We expect that this will be the future of all transactions with builders as the majority of people would rather not deal with sales staff. We see this as the same disruption Ruslan Kogan has made to the retail of electronic goods online, at the time nobody ever thought that televisions could be sold online, now Kogan.com is one of Australia’s biggest electronics retailers.

Builder’s E-Commerce is a subscription service for builders so that they may embed into their websites and sell things like pools, and granny flats and eventually project homes. The launch for Builder's E-Commerce is expected in the coming months.
