Built for the business behind the design.
AECIVO is a new business operating platform being developed specifically for Architecture, Engineering, BIM and Construction firms. It is designed to connect the commercial, operational and project information that AEC businesses rely on every day.
AEC firms deliver complex projects. Their business systems should not be fragmented.
A project may begin as a client conversation, become an RFQ, move through estimation and proposal, turn into a live project, require a team, consume thousands of work hours, generate invoices and ultimately contribute to the firm's profitability. These are not separate activities. They are one continuous business journey.
AECIVO is being built around that journey. Instead of treating CRM, proposals, projects, people, time, billing and business performance as isolated functions, AECIVO connects them around the fundamental unit of an AEC business: the project.
One business. One connected flow.
Information should move with the project rather than being recreated across spreadsheets, emails and disconnected applications.
See the whole project lifecycle
Keep commercial, project and resource information connected from the first opportunity through project delivery and final billing.
Reduce repeated data entry
Client, project, proposal and resource information should flow forward instead of being recreated every time a project changes stage.
Understand the business better
Bring utilisation, project effort, billing and profitability into a more useful management view.
Why we are building AECIVO
AEC businesses sell expertise and time, but deliver projects. Successful management requires understanding both at the same time.
Who is working where?
See project allocation, team workload and resource demand more clearly.
How much effort is being consumed?
Compare estimated project effort with actual time and remaining work.
Is the project commercially healthy?
Connect progress, billing and resource consumption to project performance.
Modular by design.
Every AEC firm does not need every function on day one. AECIVO is being designed so organisations can begin with the capabilities they need and expand as they grow.
AEC Intelligence. Value. Operations.
The name AECIVO reflects the kind of platform we want to build: intelligence from connected information, value from people and technology, and operations that work together rather than in isolation.
Something new for the AEC industry is taking shape.
AECIVO is being developed with a clear objective: to make powerful business management technology practical, connected and relevant for growing AEC organisations.
