By ABC | March 3, 2021

Associated Builders and Contractors recently announced the launch of its inaugural Tech Marketplace, comprised of companies that provide construction technology and innovative digital solutions for ABC contractor members to advance and grow their technology strategies, offerings and abilities.

“Technology helps our contractor members become safer, more profitable and primed to win more work,” said Matt Abeles, ABC’s vice president of construction technology and innovation. “The Tech Marketplace brings together a group of technology providers, selected by ABC’s Tech and Innovation Committee, ready to partner with ABC members to help them integrate construction technology and innovation into all aspects of their strategic initiatives. The majority of ABC contractor members are classified as small businesses and primarily perform work in the industrial and commercial sectors, and the Tech Marketplace will provide cost-saving solutions to fit these contractors’ needs.”

Consisting of 14 companies, the Tech Marketplace will be the premier source for ABC members to find technological construction solutions, chosen by ABC’s Tech and Innovation Committee, to help them develop people, win work and deliver that work safely, ethically and profitably for the betterment of the communities in which they work. In particular, the Tech Marketplace will offer small and mid-sized contractors and subcontractors construction technology solutions for bidding, billing, BIM, compliance, connected equipment, CRM, field collaboration, job costing, jobsite monitoring, preconstruction, project management, safety analytics, security, service software, subcontractor management and time tracking, among others.

Current Tech Marketplace members include: AutodeskBuildOpsFlashtractFoundation SoftwaremyComplyPentaProcoreProEstReal Time Risk SolutionsRiskcastSafesite, StructionSiteSubHQ, and Tenna.
