3BUSINESS REPORT
The alternative services in the Australian market that provides the same kind of service
that of CPB Contractors are Lend Lease, Laing O’Rourke Australia and Probuild. These
construction companies are well developed and compete in the market with CPB Contractors.
They provide service in the construction field like that of CPB Contractors. They have
advantages over CPB Contractors as they take small tasks and usual constructions. The main
disadvantage that these companies faces due to the huge brand loyalty of CPB Contractors.
The customer handling is quite nurturing in the company itself. The customers’ need
safety from the service that is provided by the organization. Construction business is risky and
clients require safety from the companies. The customers’ also needs the project to be economic.
The project given to the contractor company is needed to be under the selected budget by the
customers. These two aspects is needed to keep in mind to understand the need of customers.
The employee handling the customers’ should put them in place of the customer and think about
their needs in place of them. The alternative service could be provided to the customers in place
of previous service by understanding the project needed by the client (Charles 2017).
The customers have every rights to dismiss the project proposal or plan if it is not up to
the mark or the customer thinks that the project is not satisfactory. Regulation and legislations
such as The National Construction Code of Volume 1 and 2, Plumbing Code in Australia as
Volume 3, State and Territory Legislation such as Building and construction Industry Security
Payment Act of 199 and Construction Contracts Act of 2004 is followed by the organization
(Chan et al. 2018).
The service that could be placed in place of the previous services that would help in
ensuring the referrals and also helps in matching the customer needs would be a service that

would help in creating more integrity and more safety and economic. Innovative ideas are also
welcomed as new end of services (Ashworth and Perera 2018).
Different modes of communication and campaigns related to employment motivation
would be needed to ensure the pipeline of referrals. One internal networking would be open end
communication and one external would be getting in touch with the customers. These factors are
important as they would help in developing new pipelines for referral (Brown and Loosemore
2015).
The current method of maintaining the records and customer interaction history of the
company are outdated. They store the data and use in manually. With the development of AI and
BIG DATA and Cloud computing, the comparing and the customer records could be stored and
used with the development of new artificial intelligence that would help the organization I doing
the work.
