Why community housing providers choose IPEX

Our platform supports NRSCH compliance requirements whilst enabling early intervention before financial problems become project failures.
IPEX operates flexibly across various CHP delivery models, from fixed price through to construction management contracts. The platform requires no disclosure of contractor margins whilst providing complete payment transparency. Funds are held securely by Macquarie Bank in dedicated trust accounts, ensuring complete separation from contractor business operations.
