KNOWLEDGE HUB
MAKES LONDON
SHORTLIST
The FENSA Knowledge Hub has been shortlisted
for ‘Technological Innovation of the Year’ at
the London Construction Awards 2017.
The hub - FENSA’s cross-platform
data insight and management tool - allows
installers to harness big data to target, identify
and secure new commercial opportunities.
Commenting, Chris Beedel, director of
membership at FENSA, said: “We’re ab-
solutely delighted that FENSA has been
shortlisted as a finalist for this prestigious
award. We’ve registered nearly 13 million
glazing installations since 2002 which pro-
vides data on performance, price and other
quality indicators. We were keen to use this
data to provide installers with meaningful
insights that could help them improve the
service and competitiveness of their offer
for consumers.
“Installers are able to use big data
insights generated from the FENSA Knowl-
edge Hub to benchmark their products
and prices against local averages, and also
identify new markets. We are continually
developing the tool which will soon include
feedback on installer performance directly
from their customers.”
The Knowledge Hub was launched earlier
this year to give FENSA members better
insights into the market they are operat-
ing in, allowing installers to evaluate their
performance and prices against the market
average, benchmark against previous data
and identify sales opportunities through de-
mand trend insights. Its offering represents
a big data aggregation tool that is accessible
to small and medium sized businesses.
The tool uses insights from FENSA in-
spections and registrations to identify the
size of the glazing market in each local
authority area, and can be accessed via
tablet, smartphone or desktop computer.
Other key insights from the Knowledge
Hub include:
• An overview of the installer’s previous
work over a selected period, including
metrics on elements such as energy ef-
ficiency, inspections, window and door
installations and average order value
• The average unit and order value across
each local authority
• An overview of all window and doors
installations and inspections across Eng-
land and Wales
The London Construction Awards, in
October, rewards the very best in London’s
construction sector, judged by a panel of
senior construction professionals.
