The relationship between suppliers and builders needs to be mutually beneficial and how it can generate loyal customers for suppliers.

Custom home builders and suppliers need to have a synergistic relationship to be successful in the construction industry. Suppliers want to offer custom home builders the materials they need to complete high-quality projects quickly and efficiently.

Still, technology can help keep all parties informed to avoid unwanted surprises and enough time to plan and make necessary adjustments.
