PBM’sMarch 2012 edition is nearing completion and the issue will take a detailed look at the topic of Information Technology, with case studies illustrating how a number of different merchant businesses have delivered efficiency improvements by reviewing and upgrading their IT systems. The IT feature also provides details on the opportunites offered to merchants by the Constructionline ‘pre-qualification’ portal. The second set of features in the March magazine tackle the often tricky topic of ‘Doors, Windows & Security’ and showcase a number of ways in which the joinery sector - even with PVCU and composite doors & windows, along with bespoke orders - is opening up for merchants.
We will also be providing a further preview of the forthcoming Ecobuild exhibition, as the date for the sustainable building show gets closer.
And just as in every issue, the February mag will contain our regular round-up of the latest news, industry comment, market information, sales & merchandising tips in addition to a raft of new product information.
PBM March — coming soon!
