At Red Flag Alert, we specialise in business credit checking and supplying the most accurate business data to help our clients avoid bad debt and find customers that can be relied on to pay on time. Originally developed by the UK’s largest insolvency firm, Begbies Traynor, and now the UK’s only independent credit reference agency, we have over 20 years of experience in spotting the early warning signs of business failure and growth.
The construction industry experiences a high level of bad debt and deciding what are safe business decisions to make is often difficult for company directors, and clients or suppliers that were doing well when a deal was made can quickly fail.
Red Flag Alert helps our clients in the construction industry by supplying detailed but easy to understand business reports on all UK companies and over 350 million international businesses. Our reports contain up to the minute data, such as live CCJ feeds, and contain everything you need to understand their financial health, including our unique health rating system that clearly shows a company’s creditworthiness and if they’re safe to do business with.
Our user-friendly software provides a clear insight into when and why a business has its rating, with its complete financial history on display.
Experiencing a client or supplier suddenly fail can place unrecoverable strain on your business. To avoid this, our platform also includes a powerful but simple to use company monitoring tool that lets our clients create customised monitoring lists, where you can choose the events to alert on, and share them across your business. Giving you plenty of time to react to signs of business distress.
We have years of experience in both providing data to the construction industry and predicting failure within it; and gave our clients early warning of such high profile failures as Carillion, Jehu Group and Buckingham Group.
