ATLANTA, Oct. 28, 2020 – (PRNewswire) – SmartPM Technologies, a leader in schedule analytics software for the construction industry, is pleased to announce a multiyear, expanded client agreement with one of its flagship clients, Ryan Companies (Ryan), a national building, development, design and real estate management firm. SmartPM Technologies, which launched its cloud-based SaaS platform in 2019, provides an enterprise solution to Ryan Companies for schedule analytics.
The platform will be implemented across 200 projects for Minneapolis-based Ryan, along with a customized software integration that enables automatic uploads of the firm’s construction schedule files directly to the SmartPM platform. In addition, SmartPM’s analytics will be automatically fed into other systems that executive leadership at Ryan is using to oversee performance on its projects.
“The Ryan team understands the importance of schedule data in the overall equation of performance oversight and risk management, and is at the forefront of the data analysis movement that’s happening in the construction industry right now,” said Michael Pink, founder and CEO of SmartPM Technologies. “We are honored to work with the firm and look forward to our expanded relationship.”
SmartPM was developed to meet a critical need for real-time project data in the construction industry. According to research, large construction projects, across asset classes, typically take 20% longer to finish than scheduled and are up to 80% over budget.
“As we continue to grow and expand our construction services nationally, we recognize that schedule performance and analytics are critical to our ongoing success,” said Josh Bergstrom, director of field development and training at Ryan. “Shortly after we engaged SmartPM for a trial period, we realized we had found something that no other company could provide. The ability to present our teams with actionable, easy-to-comprehend performance-based metrics while quantifying schedule compression and feasibility made SmartPM the clear choice for us. Providing those metrics to project teams through the Procore embedded application, and being able to pull that data directly into our Power BI dashboards, was icing on the cake.”
