  • Abstract:
    A conceptual model is presented to assist construction materials suppliers to evaluate contractors' creditworthiness. The model contains variables that should be considered by suppliers when quantifying the risk associated with furnishing contractors credit. It is intended that crediting organisations be able to graphically derive the 'risk profile' of a contractor, thereby enhancing the accuracy by which contractors' creditworthiness is measured. BY understanding and correctly applying the model, materials suppliers will reduce their Probability of incurring bad debt.
