StructShare Featured in ENR Article
ENR's Associate Technology Editor, Jeff Yoders, spent time with StructShare learning how users gain efficiency and increase profits.
We are thrilled to have been featured in a recent article by Engineering News-Record (ENR) journalist, Jeff Yoders. The April 11th article, titled "StructShare Raises $8M, Aims to Streamline Supply Chains," (link below) provides a comprehensive overview of our company and our mission to streamline the supply chains of specialty contractors.
Yoders has a clear understanding of construction technology as well as the challenges and benefits that contractors in all trades experience. The article accurately highlighted the need for a more efficient and streamlined procurement process, and it did an excellent job of explaining how StructShare is addressing this need.
Raising awareness that solutions exist for some of the biggest challenges facing specialty contractors today is paramount. We share StructShare with many people throughout each week. It's not uncommon to hear, "I am so happy to know this exists. We can't continue doing business with pencil and paper or even texts and emails and spreadsheets."
Christian Erickson, Director of Marketing for StructShare adds, "we built a referral page to help spread the news not knowing what the results would be. We have been extremely happy with the results! Trades are sharing this link with other trades because they understand that a project needs to run smoothly for all to benefit from increased efficiency."
We would also like to take this opportunity to invite you to learn more about StructShare and how we can help you streamline your purchasing and materials management process. Please visit our website today to schedule a demo.
