There is no other way to put it: when you have a construction project in the works, regardless of how big or small, there are a lot of pieces to the puzzle that must be put in place for things to go smoothly and without delay.

It goes without saying that effective communication is crucial for the success of your construction projects. But anyone who has ever spent a day on the jobsite knows just how easily communication can get lost in the chaos - drowned out by the constant changes, shifting timelines, and unforeseen issues that are all in a day's work on any construction project. Miscommunication - or a lack of communication altogether - can lead to costly errors & project delays, and may ultimately compromise the overall quality of the build.

Fortunately, these missteps are completely avoidable when you take steps to streamline communication. Whether it's conveying design changes, addressing safety concerns, providing timely updates, or coordinating complex tasks, implementing simple, convenient solutions to keep your team members connected can enhance collaboration, minimize risk, and keep construction projects running on time and under budget.  

Many construction companies today find that construction management software provides a valuable solution for project communication. By acting as the central hub for all project-related communication, construction management software, like ConstructionOnline, acts as the central hub for all project-related communication and guarantees that everyone from architects and engineers to contractors and laborers remains connected and well-informed.

Your plans & drawings are the true lifeblood of your construction projects. Let’s set aside such necessary facets of a project as scheduling and estimating for a moment; beyond the black and white, there is a vision to be expressed by what will soon take a tangible form by way of your and your team’s very own hands, and the plans for that house, that condo, or that commercial development are the very road maps for how a dream is to come to being.

The time has finally arrived; after doing your share of research and talking with our staff about all of the respective capabilities and possibilities of ConstructionSuite and ConstructionOnline, you’ve pulled the trigger on the deal, signed up for one or both platforms, and now you’re ready to take your business to the next level.

No sooner than Arthur Blank, owner of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United of MLS, announced his plans in 2013 to build a new stadium to replace the Georgia Dome, Atlanta sports fans found themselves abuzz with anticipation and excitement. Not only did the new stadium (now known as Mercedes-Benz Stadium thanks to a lucrative sponsorship deal) promise to be a state-of-the-art facility that would be the envy of teams from around the world, but there was also the added bonus of the bulk of the stadium’s costs being covered by private funding.
