Solutions / Custom Operating Systems

A business operating system built around the way you actually work.

Custom software and back-office systems for contractors and small AEC firms across the United States. BuildAssist designs and implements a custom operating system around your existing tools, people, data, and processes — keeping what should stay, automating what should be automated, and building what is missing.
