Procurement & Scheduling

Reliable Procurement, Aligned with Programme

At Advanced Glass Glazing and Façade Services, we know that façade projects succeed or fail on procurement and scheduling. Delays in material supply or poor programme planning create risks for main contractors — from budget overruns to missed deadlines. Our procurement and scheduling service is built to reduce these risks and give contractors certainty from start to finish.

Our Procurement & Scheduling Approach

Approved Supply Chain

We work with trusted system suppliers including Technal, Senior Architectural Systems, and Aluprof, alongside specialist partners for fire stopping, door automation, louvres, and complementary systems. Every product is fully certified, tested, and supported with technical data.

Compliance-First Procurement

Materials are sourced with compliance in mind, from CWCT-tested curtain walling to PAS 24 certified doors and windows, and non-combustible cladding finishes in line with Approved Document B.

Programme Integration

We align procurement with project milestones, ensuring materials are delivered to site when needed. This reduces storage issues, avoids costly delays, and keeps main contractors’ programmes on track.

Scheduling Expertise

Our team develops detailed schedules for design, procurement, fabrication, and installation. These schedules provide clear visibility of critical paths and allow for coordination with other trades.

Pre-Glazing & MMC Support

Where projects use offsite methods, we support MMC delivery with pre-glazed windows and doors, packaged and scheduled for efficient transport and installation.

Risk Management

By securing materials early and working with established suppliers, we reduce exposure to supply chain volatility, cost escalation, and late-stage substitutions.

Why Contractors Trust Advanced Glass

Procurement and scheduling are about more than ordering materials — they’re about delivering certainty. By managing the entire process, Advanced Glass reduces contractor risk, ensures compliance, and keeps projects moving smoothly. Our approach gives main contractors confidence that the façade will be delivered on time, within budget, and fully aligned with programme requirements.
