Description of the blog

Construction firms have always faced physical risk. What has changed dramatically over the past several years is the scale of digital risk that’s embedded in every project. From bid documents and design files to contracts, payroll records and compliance data, construction firms manage vast volumes of sensitive information across a fragmented ecosystem of partners, platforms and jobsites. That complexity has made the industry an increasingly attractive target for ransomware and data exposure.

Managing construction projects can feel like trying to juggle a hundred moving parts while keeping everything on track. That’s where construction dashboards come in. Think of them as your project’s command center, giving you real-time updates and insights to boost efficiency, teamwork and quick decision-making.

As construction companies and their projects grow in size and scope, so too does the volume of data generated and the number of individuals involved. With this complexity comes the heightened risk of data breaches, miscommunication and inefficiencies that can significantly impact a project’s success.

As senior vice president of integrations at Arcoro, I spend lot of time talking to construction leaders. I hear about the incredible projects they’re building and the skilled teams making it happen. But I also hear about persistent, behind-the-scenes headaches—and payroll consistently ranks near the top.

Construction is built on relationships and partnerships, and they extend beyond back offices and jobsites into industry associations and solutions providers. The recent partnership between Document Crunch and ABC is no different, representing both organizations’ commitment to advancing construction. Here’s how it happened and how it benefits you.

Even with all the latest advances in technology, something we’ve learned repeatedly is that, when it comes to field service management, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. We had the chance to catch up with the Hubbard Mechanical team, including Stephanie Hubbard, Human Resources and Finance Manager, and Natalie Norwood, Office & Social Media Manager, about their experience with previous cloud-based operating software and how their workflow was simplified after integrating with the BuildOps platform.

The career landscape continues to evolve, impacting and shifting the career choices of those entering the workforce, most notably among Gen Z. Traditionally, the path to success often meant pursuing a white-collar job, typically requiring a college degree. However, as times change, so do perceptions and aspirations.

How Gilbane uses innovative technology to manage risk and enhance project efficiency.

Taking advantage of the billions in funds that are currently trickling down to all 50 states requires an understanding of prevailing wage and other requirements for federal contractors.

Does it matter that many, if not most, of the contractors that engage in wage theft do so unknowingly? Not at all. But innovative technology solutions can help you avoid it altogether.
