How does Tradex benefit you?

Tradex is designed and built for construction finance

We understand the unique demands of our industry. From new legislation such as DRC (Domestic Reverse Charge) to the complexities associated with operated and self-drive plant, bulk, and call-off orders and 3-way matching.

Tradex is a complete e-invoicing solution that delivers documents directly to your ERP if the invoice meets your predetermined requirements. We deliver validation to ensure:

It is an HMRC compliant invoice
It's not a duplicate
It contains a valid PO number

Where an invoice fails to meet your validation rules, suppliers are automatically notified of the reason for the return of the invoice. They are provided with the option to edit and resubmit, removing the need to credit and re-issue.

The impact of automated validation is a 10-15% time saving for Accounts Payable teams.

Join the UK's largest online trading network in construction

When you choose to use Tradex for your e-invoicing, you are joining thousands of other construction companies and the likelihood is, that your supply chain is already sending e-invoices through Tradex. Given our track record of a 95% e-invoicing adoption across the supplier chain, Tradex is best placed to deliver your ROI within weeks/months as opposed to years.

Our successful e-invoicing adoption rate is attributed to our understanding of the supply chain's vast requirements. As a result, to make it as easy as possible to connect with Tradex we provide suppliers with multiple connection options.

Taking the complexity out of e-invoicing

Tradex is more than invoicing - by having a true e-invoicing system we provide your suppliers with a self-service invoice status capability, a self-service statement reconciliation portal and the ability to manage invoice approval workflows.

Altogether, this means that Tradex becomes one of the team working behind the scenes so that only 'ready-to-pay' invoices land in your ERP every time, attributing to a 10-20% time saving on your AP team.

We take care of you and your supply chain

With over 20 years of experience, we understand how to communicate the benefits of e-invoicing to your suppliers.

When joining Causeway, you get the use of our scalable Community Management Team who are a dedicated resource to onboard and support your supply chain throughout your contract period.

This means that your AP team are not fielding queries from your suppliers and are left in the knowledge and comfort that they are being supported.

Causeway stood out for a number of reasons. Critical was their focus on the commercial and operational requirements of a contracting business, which is where R&W’s profits are won or lost.

Aaron Drury, Head of Finance R&W
