The building industry has been experiencing a period of rapid growth for quite some time now. However, there are several challenges - some are familiar and as old as time, but some have arisen due to factors like technological advancements. 

With the housing industry facing stiff competition, it's becoming apparent that traditional builders need to improve processes and, most importantly, adopt technology to continue to grow.  

This year has seen significant challenges, from labor shortages to increases in costs, it's more important than ever for builders to create efficiencies across the board.

Canibuild's unique features tackle many of these issues head-on.

1. Keeping up with compliance regulations

As technology keeps changing and evolving, this has an effect on the various building rules and regulations. Keeping up can seem daunting as different companies are affected by different levels of regulations; then you have worldwide compliance rules and country-specific laws and regulations, or even rules specific to a state or a single city.

canibuild conducts a feasibility study that auto-checks local planning rules relevant to your parcel of land, ensuring your proposed build is compliant. You will instantly know what can and can’t be built with a click of a button!

2. Slow technology adoption speed

Most of the construction sector has a notoriously slow technology adoption rate, and the problem has persisted for several years now. Despite acknowledging the numerous advantages new technologies provide, most builders tend to have relatively small budget allocations.

It’s ironic because these technologies are extremely useful for countering some of the oldest issues faced in construction.

canibuild's state-of-the-art tech provides unique features like instant site topography, high-resolution imagery and real-time 3D, which offer numerous benefits to builders. 

3. Communication problems

A major contributing factor to the problems within a construction project is related to the lack of communication between different parties, another problem that is easily soluble by modern-day technology.

canibuild helps to reduce these issues by providing necessary information and features that set clear expectations and streamlines communication between the sales team, the client and the builder. canibuild also integrates with CRMs and other platforms to create efficiencies.

4. Issues with cash flow

As a builder, you have to keep subcontractors, suppliers, and employees happy with regular payments, even though you might only receive a once-off payment and only after the project in question is complete.

canibuild’s award-winning sales platform will change the way you do business. By digitizing your sales process, you increase your business’s efficiency by reducing the hours of work for each project significantly, allowing you to estimate more, sell more, and, most importantly,  build more!
