Supplier Benefits
Increase Sales Without Expanding Your Overheads
HiTen and CFBS connect manufacturers directly with a growing national network of builders, installers and resellers — helping suppliers increase order volume without the expense, risk and customer-management burden of selling direct to market.
Supplier-Neutral Ecosystem
Unlike traditional systems, CFBS is completely supplier-neutral. Builders can work with multiple manufacturers through one platform, allowing suppliers to access more builders and projects without franchise lock-in or restrictive dealer models.

CFBS supports:
- Cold formed steel buildings
- Hot rolled UB & Web Truss structures

- Commercial & industrial projects

This allows suppliers to participate in higher-margin markets that many legacy systems cannot efficiently support.

- Quoted jobs
- Sales conversion activity
