Each financial year, Zapti reviews contractor pricing to ensure trade services remain competitive, accountable and aligned with current market rates.

Using industry and market resources including CoreLogic, Rawlinsons, HIA and hipages, contractor rates are benchmarked against market averages across the regions we service.

Our FY26 benchmarking identified average savings of approximately 10% across contractor pricing, demonstrating the value of actively reviewing and managing our contractor network.

Beyond hourly rates, Zapti’s procurement model delivers additional value by minimising call-out fees, which can add approximately $200 to individual jobs.

The result: competitive trade rates, fewer unnecessary call-out costs and consistent service delivery across regional NSW.
