BuilderMT, Sales Simplicity, and CG Visions Form Alliance with ITW Building Components Group
LAKEWOOD, Colo. --(Business Wire)--
BuilderMT, North America's best-selling construction workflow software
solution provider, today announced that it has formed a new alliance
with Sales Simplicity, CG Visions, and ITW Building Components Group.
The purpose of the alliance is to offer a complete BIM-driven solution
and integrated construction workflow that promotes better collaboration
in residential construction. News of the alliance follows ITW Building
Components Group's IBS 2012 announcement that it has successfully
demonstrated the INSTINCT - Residential Design System, which
BuilderMT, Sales Simplicity, and CG Visions have all linked to digitally.
Through this alliance, its members will engage builder customers in a
design-and-build process that uses digital workflows and 3D BIM models
that enable construction professionals to collaborate on lean, green,
and sustainable design practices, while delivering quality homes with
accurate material estimates, building component designs, and predictable
profit. The level of supreme accuracy offered by these allied systems is
delivered by linking 3D BIM models with "INSTINCT-enabled" software from
Sales Simplicity, BuilderMT, CG Visions, and ITW BCG programs, which
include VisionREZ, hsbCAD, VIEW, intelliVIEW, and IntelliBuild.
"Builders who have thrived over the last year have done so for two
principle reasons," said Tom Gebes, BuilderMT's president. "First, they
have moved to a custom or semi-custom sales model, which often requires
a proliferation of model options to accommodate the wishes of even the
most demanding home buyer. Second, these successful builders have made
profit margins on actual operations, not on speculation. They know that
even as the homes are optioned-out up to the very last minute, it is
crucial tht they maintain extremely tight cost control over every
element in the home. Our new alliance helps builders to manage projects,
production and profits with innovative software connections that track
the true cost of all options, while easily handling the exact production
details of every lot-specific customer choice, including custom truss
and wall component designs."
"BuilderMT is thrilled to be working with these premier consulting and
technology companies to deliver the best BIM-driven collaboration system
for residential building professionals," Gebes added.
