| 4 minute read

Within a challenging global economic landscape, 2022 was a landmark year for technological advancements across all industries, and the construction technology sector was no exception. Our cmBuilder customers were active in providing product feedback and features requests and our team harnessed a proactive approach to not only meet, but hopefully exceed our customers’ needs and expectations. We are proud of our incredible product velocity powered by our Agile and lean approach.

2022 was a landmark year for the cmBuilder platform. We recognize the crucial roles that ease of use, speed and accessibility play in the development of our 3D/4D/5D construction site logistics platform. Over the past year, we made a conceded effort to make accessibility a priority in all aspects of our software in the form of performance, scalability and collaboration. In light of this, we believe that keeping our customers informed and engaged is the best way to maximize the accessibility of our software. This came in the form of our newly created user workshops, consumer spotlights, feature release announcements and even #KeyFeatureFriday on LinkedIn! We are honoured to be on this journey of innovation with you, our innovative customer!

I am extremely proud of our team and how we significantly increased our product velocity with meaningful, valuable new features on the cmBuilder platform in 2022. We are inspired by our incredible group of customers who are shaping the built environment all over the world, and we aim to take the cmBuilder platform to the next level in 2023!

Empowering users to increase project shareholder engagement using the cmBuilder direct share link feature

General contractors and project stakeholders strive to leverage digital technologies to accelerate project timelines, identify construction phase risks and make better decisions that save costs downstream. The site logistics component to the project planning phase is a critical component to all this and is why companies are turning to 3D/4D site simulation platforms like cmBuilder to plan and simulate site logistics, run multiple “scenarios” and generate project timeline simulations, allowing them to make better, data-driven decisions that account for project risks, cost constraints and overall site-specific logistics planning.
