The construction industry is facing many challenges: the need to build more, faster, and with constrained resources. Does construction need more workers? Yes. But what is actually required more than ever is innovation and excitement about a new way of doing things, and central to that is technology, which is one of the reasons we developed the Constructech Top Products awards program.
With the help of a panel of judges, the hope is the research conducted for the 2025 Constructech Top Products awards program will help businesses identify the best products in the construction market, as well as the solutions necessary for innovation in 2025 and beyond.
Key to this program is both the core, underlying functionality of the product and the enhancements or upgrades made in the past year, as well as customer feedback and user satisfaction. Today, let’s look at one of the 2025 Constructech Top Products winners that is aimed at corporate project owners. Let’s peek behind the curtain at how innovation is taking center stage in this example.
Consider Projectmates from Systemates. Projectmates is a cloud-based construction program management software designed to streamline project workflows, improve collaboration, and increase visibility for project owners. The product offers tools for construction management, cost tracking, project reporting, and more. It helps construction teams manage projects efficiently from concept to closeout, allowing all stakeholders to communicate.
In the past year the company has introduced a range of enhancements designed to improve both functionality and user experience including custom apps that can pull data from any custom project into the field for easier document creation and standardization. The platform also has a new comment tagging feature, improved translation and currency capabilities, and has seen continuous improvements aimed at enhancing performance. The company is continuously coming out with new enhancements monthly.
For today’s project owners, many like Projectmates’ configurable platform and the increasing list of integration capabilities that are being offered.
Project owners such as Crate&Barrel, T-Mobile, Loves, Port Houston, QuikTrip, State of Idaho, HEB, and UNC Health have successfully leveraged Projectmates.
What makes this product so truly unique, though, is that Projectmates is designed to encompass the entire lifecycle of multiple projects, while most construction management solutions focus solely on the construction phase of a single project. This gives project owners the opportunity to deliver greater visibility at a program level, enabling owners to make faster decisions based on real data.
Technology such as this serves multiple purposes. With the right data in hand, teams can ensure projects are done on time and on budget. The technology can help by enhancing productivity, reducing risks, and ensuring a quality project.
At the end of the day, this is what is so desperately needed in the construction industry: innovation. Construction teams need to reconsider how work is done to deliver a better result, and that must start with technology. It must start with data. Projectmates helps deliver this for project owners.
The questions now remain: How will your teams leverage technology in the year ahead? How will your teams continue to become more innovative in 2025? Now is the time to make change happen. Let’s build a better tomorrow, today.
