Jul 14, 2011 Press, Press Release
Nashville, TN (PRWEB) July 14, 2011
Two key players in construction technology have announced a new level of integration that will help general contractors find and qualify the right subcontractors for every bid project. The integration involves SmartBidNet, of College Station, Texas and jobsite123.com of Fort Lauderdale, Florida – in a shared commitment to maximum connectivity between technologies in the commercial construction industry and the efficient transfer of information.
![158[1]](http://blog.jobsite123.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/1581.gif "158[1]")
Finding the most qualified subcontractors for any construction project just got infinitely easier. Today, at the 2011 American Society of Professional Estimators Annual Convention, in Nashville, two key players in construction technology announced a new level of integration that will help general contractors find and qualify the right subcontractors for every bid project. The integration involves SmartBidNet, of College Station, Texas and jobsite123.com of Fort Lauderdale, Florida – in a shared commitment to maximum connectivity between technologies in the commercial construction industry and the efficient transfer of information.
SmartBidNet, a web-based bid management, plan file distribution and prequalification solution for commercial general contractors has provided a growing, yet basic, public registry of subcontractors to its users since 2006. This new partnership will enhance SmartBidNet’s subcontractor registry to ensure that the hundreds of general contractors using SmartBidNet will have instant access to more than 100,000 subcontractors in jobsite123.com – the construction industry’s leading database of user-maintained contractor profiles, containing unprecedented amounts of helpful pre-qualification information, such as: insurance coverage, bonding capacity, project history, client performance ratings and a referral network to other subcontractors that each company recommends, and much more.
James Benham, president of SmartBidNet said, “By integrating with jobsite123, we are dramatically extending the reach that our clients have when finding subcontractors to bid on work in a consistently competitive construction environment. jobSite123’s successful partnership with Associated Builders and Contractors further solidifies the value that this data provides to our user base.” Benham concluded, “This integration continues our strategy to collaborate with industry leading partners, such as our recently announced partnership with Cloud Takeoff.”
jobSite123.com CEO, Coty Fournier added, “With hundreds of the top GC’s using SmartBidNet’s technology, subcontractors now have every incentive to keep their jobsite123 profile information current and complete, ensuring that SmartBidNet users have instant answers to 95% of the most common pre-qualification questions. Furthermore, our connectivity will save all SmartBidNet users time and money by eliminating the frustration of redundant data entry. When a subcontractor edits their profile in jobsite123, their changes will be automatically reflected in their SmartBidNet public registry profile.”
SmartBidNet will sync with jobSite123’s extensive contractor database daily to provide the most current and relevant information to its users. The official integration will go live by October 2011 and will thereafter be available to all SmartBidNet clients at no extra cost.
SmartBidNet is a web-based software that assists commercial general contractors in managing and prequalifying subcontractors, creating and sending invitations to bid, distributing and collaborating on plan files and takeoff with subcontractors, and processing bid proposals.

Construction Crews Receive Simultaneous Communication with CrewBlast Text Messaging
Jun 28, 2011 Press Release
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, June 28, 2011 ― On the heels of its release of BizApps — a B2B mobile marketing package designed specifically for construction suppliers — jobsite123.com today introduced CrewBlast™, a mobile app designed to simultaneously broadcast information across a jobsite.
Construction managers will use CrewBlast’s SMS technology to reach all members of a crew instantly, right where they are. These text messages may include information like safety alerts, operational updates, scheduling or weather issues and resources or equipment coordination. With this tool, management can reach any or all employees and subcontracted workers with one click.
“The single biggest controllable factor for loss in the construction industry is miscommunication, which can result in losses upwards of millions of dollars,” said Craig Noble, jobsite123.com’s chief content officer. “The ability to provide clear and swift communication can make or break a project. This level of communication can be particularly challenging when coordinating workers and crews scattered across a jobsite, often at multiple locations.”
“With CrewBlast’s capabilities, our aim is to keep all parties involved with a project on the same page to save time and money,” he said.
Whether it’s a change in project scope, building plans, weather or arrival of a building inspector, the information needs to be delivered without delay or error. CrewBlast™ utilizes what is called a SMS short code for the project parties to subscribe to via text messaging on their mobile phones. Once opted in, those parties can receive job critical information from the project managers whenever that information needs to be distributed, instantly via text message.
“Until now, project managers have had to predominately rely on written notes and phone calls passed from one person to the next to share information,” Noble said. “Our job is to make sure the construction industry keeps pace with the benefits that technology has to offer, and we feel that CrewBlast™ is absolutely a step in that direction.”
