"There were features and functions in BuilderMT’sWMS that we simply weren’t aware of, and once we got them activated-which didn’t take more than a week of work- we have dramatically more efficient operations. In fact, we are in a position to grow the company without adding any back-office staff."
“We went with BuilderMT because they did have Wireless Scheduling on the BlackBerries with Nextel. So my superintendents can walk into a house and check off any phases being completed and we have realtime information updating our master schedule at all times."
“I wanted to drop you a note and let you know how much I like the Phase Release and Supplier Contract parts of the BuilderMT WMS Purchasing Module. In this time of short staff, this has been a godsend. I am currently the only person in the Metropolitan Homes, purchasing department and must handle all responsibilities from bidding, negotiating, contracting, issuing and approving PO’s. We are in the process of actually starting a new community, and I was a little afraid of not having the time to bid the project, contract the Vendors, create the price data base, and issue PO’s quickly enough to fit our start schedule. The Phase Release and Supplier Contract has allowed me to enter my accepted bids, print a custom created Pricing Addendum form for my Vendor Contract, which automatically creates my cost data base, and allows me to send PO’s the same day! I’m no longer retyping bid numbers for contract documents, which has saved me so much time and aggravation. I don’t have to go through the creation of all of the estimates to pull and shove prices in and out. The process is clean and simple and I love it."
It’s one thing to talk about quality. It’s another thing to build your entire organization around it. And that’s exactly what we’ve done.”
"We can now generate reports specific to customers and properties without having to sift through countless reports manually. We can handle requests in a more streamlined fashion – and our customers are happier."
"I am fast to let folks know when I am less than pleased. Let me be just as fast to says a special thanks to Donna for answering her cell phone on Saturday and getting me connected with BMT support after our server hard drive went out and we completed the replacement. Top notch customer service."
“Every one of the ’push’ technologies has a weakness, Faxes run out of paper, there is no one there to pick up the fax, e-mails get deleted or never delivered with e-mail filters and software issues, phone calls and voicemails aren’t heard and calls aren’t returned… the mail takes days to deliver and time to prepare or copy documents… those aren’t cheap or efficient technologies. We needed a tool that would always be there, always available in a secure environment that we control… not the US Postal Service or my drywall contractor’s cell phone or e-mail service. That’s why I’m an early adopter and big believer in the ‘pull’ technology of BuilderMT’s Trade Portal.”
“It has saved us a great deal of money already, Our cost for BPM was around $30,000, and we soon paid for the software platform with just this VPO process, and we have plans for several additional BPM processes in the works.”
"Builder MT is an amazing product and has everything you could ever need in a construction software system. Depending on the size of your company it may be more than you need. If I’m not mistaken, more Builders use Builder MT than all the other construction software companies combined so there is lots of support."
“At any time, using the integration between Sales Simplicity, BuilderMT, and Sage, we can run a real-time gross profit number for any start and really get an idea of where we are on the job’s progress.”
"Now, with the power of those models, and the data they contain, coupled with BIM Pipeline’s estimating capabilities, we will be able to process 680 starts with just three people in estimating and purchasing and two in drafting."
“Our variance purchase orders have dropped dramatically. Last month they were below 2%. Thing is, our goal was 3%.”
"I just finished up a support call with Donna and I must tell you how thankful I am for her. She is “A-1”, top-notch, just plain fantastic. Thank you for hiring and keeping the best employees during these most challenging times. Specifically, she solves my problems, with thoughtfulness, anticipating potential pitfalls, she looks forward to future possibilities and does this all with a very sweet and kind attitude. From a business/sales side of things, she is also sure to inform us of BuilderMT products that may be of use to us. Thank you again and we wish you and your team the best success as we seek to grow amid adversity."
"We couldn’t be happier with our choices and the quality people that all of these company have dedicated to us for the implementation."
“I view my building business as having three basic phases, Phase One is pre-construction, permitting, plan approval and such, Phase Two is construction operations, and Phase Three is PostConstruction: Move-in and warranty, and anything we can do to drive for the best customer experience and referrals. BuilderMT handles every facet of Phase Two. So my pain points are Phases One and Three, and that’s where BPM comes in.”
