3 SIMPLE MOVES FOR GETTING

NEW CONSTRUCTION

SOFTWARE BUY-IN FROM THE

OFFICE

1. BE A CHAMPION

Ease the fear of a new

software rollout by being a

leader and providing support

Use on-site teams to show

their experience with the

software and to provide

support in the office

Updates on your mobile

device are important to

ensure the app is running as

smoothly and efficiently as

possible

Reach out to the vendor to

see which resources they

can provide you with to help

support your pitch

2. KNOW YOUR NUMBERS

Cost savings can come from

increased efficiency, less re-

work, cheaper materials and

labour, etc.

Try to understand how much

time you are currently

spending on each

specific task

Implementing a new software

can help reduce your

walkthrough time which

ultimately saves costs

Important base numbers

• How much time does the process

currently take?

• How much time do you think the

software will save you?

• How much does the software cost?

• What are the additional value-adds?

Such as free-setup, support, etc.

3. ESTABLISH CLEAR GOALS

Create a list of clearly defined

goals to help the rest of your

team visualize the software’s

rollout success

Test the software with a pilot

project before rolling it out to

the entire company

A test pilot will allow you to

evaluate the success of the

software and thus help you

integrate it within

your company

Important areas to measure

when test piloting your software

• Time saved

• Data and quantifiable information

• Communication with your team

• Reputation in the industry

Finally, some punch list therapy.

Use Closeout to easily manage your

punch lists in real-time from your mobile

phone or computer.
