Coverage from BusinessWireThe construction industry today faces unique challenges in response to current economic conditions. Among increasing project complexities and a growing urgency for sustainable development, owners and contractors are confronting labor shortages, materials cost escalation, and supply chain disruptions. These significant challenges directly impact project outcomes. A recent survey commissioned by Procore Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:PCOR), a leading global provider of construction management software, found 75% of construction projects are over budget, and 77% are behind schedule.
Recognizing the immediate need to leverage digital solutions to address labor, supply chain, design, sustainability, and automation goals, three years ago Suffolk Technologies, the venture investment affiliate of Suffolk, created its BOOST program.”
