Flooring and tile are the last big material on a build and among the first selected. BuildMapper shows your reps every new build the week it's filed, which ones carry the most square feet, and who to call before the selections close.
A permit tells you a project exists. It doesn't tell you the part that decides the deal: when the buying happens. Every build has a different right moment for what you sell, and BuildMapper flags each one when it's your time to call, not when the permit was filed.
Finishing · Week 15 and later, selected months earlier. Floors go in after drywall and paint, but they're selected off the plans and ordered with lead times in mind. BuildMapper flags a supplier at issue and the project stays flagged through finishing, while the order is still open.
These are the three problems BuildMapper was built to solve.
The selection was made months ago in a showroom you've never heard of. What's left is a rush order at someone else's price.
An 84-unit building is 84 floors. On a city portal it's a developer's name and a value, and nobody had time to read it.
A quote goes out from the desk. The outside rep visits the site the same week and doesn't know. The builder hears two prices.
BuildMapper reads every permit in your area and turns it into a map a rep can plan a day around: what's being built, what the build is worth, what stage it's at, and who's behind it. Scored for flooring & tile, so the builds that need you sit on top.
Upload your customer list, and BuildMapper checks it against every permit pulled in your area. Back comes the list of builders building right now who aren't on your list, ranked by how well they fit flooring & tile, with your share in dollars on each.
“You named 420 builders. There are 371 actively building in your area right now. Here are the 353 you didn't name, ranked by opportunity.”
That team had sold to 420 builders over the years, and still didn't know most of the ones active around them today. Your numbers will be different, because everything is built from your own list and your own product lines, never from a market average.
This is everything BuildMapper asks of a rep: read a text, tap send, reply when something happens. Same morning, every rep on the team.
Overnight, Scout read every new permit in your area and picked out the builds that will need flooring & tile, before your competitors notice.
Not a list to wade through: one builder to call, what it's worth to you, why it fits this rep, and the contact. Your newest hire gets the same quality of lead as your best rep.
Stops come back as a route, not a scatter of pins. Four worthwhile sites, in order, instead of a morning of driving past lots where nothing is happening.
Scout writes the opener in your rep's voice, mentioning the permit. The rep reads it, changes a word, and sends it from their own phone. Every message a customer sees comes from your rep, never from a bot.
Rep texts back "won it". Scout logs it, updates the pipeline, and learns what this rep wins so tomorrow's lead is better. Nobody typed into a CRM today.
One login, one customer record. Reps get the map, their pipeline and Scout. Managers get the team view on top. Here is what each one does for what you sell.
Units and value come off the permit and the map scores each build for what you sell, so the projects with the most floor sit on top, with the stage that tells a rep whether selections are still open or the installer is already booked.
See Permit MapAdd them. When one pulls a permit anywhere you cover, their rep hears first, with the last order attached.
See ConnectionsUpload your customer list. Back comes every builder active in your area who isn't on it, ranked by fit, with the flooring and tile share of each build in dollars. Jobs you weren't on, never "lost".
See Territory IntelligenceScout texts each rep the build worth calling, why it fits, who's buying, and a drafted intro. The rep sends it from their own phone.
See Scout on your phoneEach week's permits arrive grouped by the rep who should work them, with the reason shown. A rep who has quoted this developer before gets them again. You approve the week in one click.
See Team FlowA quote from the showroom and a site visit from the rep land on the same lead. "Quoted 84 units, 210k" from a text becomes the stage and the value.
See Sales Pipeline"What's our cost on the 7-inch engineered white oak, and is it rated for radiant?" Answered from your own price list and the spec sheets you loaded, with the file named, while the customer is still standing there.
See Product BrainUpload the plan set. Quotes reads room areas and drafts line items by floor type, so your estimator checks a list instead of building one.
See QuotesEvery rep's deals in one place: stages, dollar values, next steps, kept current by the texts they already send. You get the team view. Your reps never open a CRM.
And it stays current when a rep is slammed, when a rep is on vacation, and on the day a rep quits. The record belongs to your company, not to someone's phone.
Send leads to Salesforce, use the API and webhooks, or take a weekly report. ERP Connect reads your accounts and order history, read-only, so Scout knows your customers. It never writes to your ERP.
Load your price lists and spec sheets once. Then any rep can ask a product question in plain English, in the app or by text from a job site, and get a real number with the file it came from. It only ever answers from your own documents.
Supply yards, appliance and material dealers across BC run BuildMapper as the first call of their morning.
Scout adds 20–30% more selling capacity to every rep, not by making anyone work harder, but by deleting the hours between “a project exists” and “my rep is talking to the builder.” Use the conservative 25% and your own numbers.
