Industrial distribution moves $2.7 trillion through the American economy every year.
Distributors and manufacturers keep contractors supplied, hospitals running, and infrastructure moving. When a data center gets built, when a school gets renovated, when a water system gets upgraded — distributors made it happen.
But the systems running this industry haven't kept pace with what it demands. Quote requests arrive as messy PDFs. Phone lines get swamped. The best people in the business spend their days keying data into ERPs instead of selling.
We started Faction to remove the friction. Because we believe this work matters, and the people doing it deserve better tools.
Determined to unlock growth for industrial distributors and manufacturers.
We are obsessed with this industry and the people who run it. And we want to help make them faster.
Faster quotes mean faster builds. Faster builds mean more data centers, more hospitals, more schools, more infrastructure. We're just getting started. We have much more to build.
We operate by a set of principles that shape
how we build, how we sell, and who we hire.
Work Like The Company Depends On It. Because It Does.
We are in a race against competitors, against skepticism, against the inertia of an industry that's been doing things the same way for decades. Speed is everything.
Best Idea Wins.
We don't care who says it. We care whether it's right.
Be An Industry Expert.
Our customers have been burned by outsiders who don't understand their business. We refuse to be one of them.
Show, Don't Tell.
In an industry full of promises and failed implementations, we lead with evidence.
Maintain The Craftsmen Reputation.
We obsess over the small things because our customers notice them, and because building something excellent is the point.
Come build the software layer for
the physical world.
If you want to point to something in the physical world and say "that was built because of what we built," we want to talk to you.
