Procore Does Data Center Construction

Procore has several clients who are using our construction software to manage Internet data center facility construction projects across the US.

Data centers are also known as "mission critical" facilities because the web and data servers they house must be able to function at all times. Imagine how much it could cost a major e-commerce company if their website servers went down for even an hour. If a data center is not properly built, all kinds of problems could crop up and affect not just one tenant, but hundreds or even thousands of "virtual tenants," companies that have their web servers housed in that facility. An issue with poor electrical systems design or a leaking roof can have repercussions for many data center clients and thousands of customers for those companies.

That's why data centers have to be built right. Because so many companies and people depend on the data center to provide a secure home for mission-critical equipment and data, the facility has to be built to a high standard. Likewise, the construction project management software used to build a data center has to be accurate and dependable -- there's no room for communication errors, lost project documents, or mismanaged change orders because of a construction software error.

Procore's construction project management software is helping to build the facilities that actually power the Internet. Several Procore clients, including Nova Corp (NY/NJ), XL Construction (CA), and Concept Construction (NY), are using Procore as their construction project management software standard for more than a dozen different mission critical facility projects throughout the US. Using a web-based construction software tool to build the data centers that house the Internet's web servers makes a lot of sense.

If you sell construction services to high-tech clients, demonstrating Procore's construction software as part of your sales effort can do a lot to demonstrate your technology literacy. Do you have competitors who still use a legal pad and a cell phone to manage their projects? Make sure your prospects and clients know you're using Procore as your construction software in order to run a 21st century business.

Nova Corp. Chooses Procore Construction Project Management Software

Leading Mission Critical facility construction manager Nova Corp, Inc. has selected Procore as its company-wide standard for construction project management collaboration and communication.

As a worldwide construction management company, Nova requires a collaboration and project management tool that can be rapidly delivered to any employee with an Internet connection. After using the software on several pilot projects, Nova moved to standardize its operations on Procore based upon real-world experience with the construction software.

Nova Executive Vice President of Operations Robert Pappas noted that "Nova has been able to work hand-in-hand with Procore to actually improve how the software works with our organization. Procore listens to input, and works with the Nova team to enhance Procore's functionality and ease-of-use. At Nova, we've seen for ourselves how Procore can rapidly deliver the features we need the most."

With offices located throughout North America, the United Kingdom and the Middle-East, Nova is one of the world's leading international construction managers for the successful completion of data centers and other mission critical facilities. In the past eight years, Nova has designed, built and commissioned over six million square feet of data centers in the United States, Mexico, Canada and the United Kingdom. The company has recently opened an office in Dubai in order to service its clients' expansion into the Middle-East region. More than 90% of Nova's business comes from its existing customers, who continue to employ Nova's services to facilitate repeated and successful entry into new markets.

"Nova manages mission critical projects around the globe, and they require construction management software that can keep up with their rapid development timeframes, " said Procore CEO Tooey Courtemanche. "With project team members distributed worldwide, Nova requires a web-based tool that is easy to learn, easy to use, and can be quickly improved to fit Nova's needs. I'm proud that Procore has been selected as Nova's construction software of choice."
