e-Builder's AppXchange Builds Real-Time Information Bridges for Capital Projects

PLANTATION, Fla., July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- e-Builder, a Trimble Company (NASDAQ: TRMB), a leading SaaS-based construction program management solution for capital program owners and program management firms today announced the launch of e-Builder AppXchangetm integration platform.  e-Builder AppXchange is a suite of tools designed to reduce information silos and allow facility and asset owners to connect and share data across critical information technology solutions.

e-Builder AppXchange platform is a collection of data "connectors" that seamlessly integrates e-Builder Enterprisetm project management information system (PMIS) data with the broad ecosystem of solutions used by capital owners.  Examples of e-Builder AppXchange pre-built integrations include connections to SAP enterprise resource planning solutions, collaboration tools, financial and supply change management software. With these integrations owner organizations have access to real-time data, flowing from one system to another, reducing the time spent on piecing together information from multiple systems.

"Since integrating e-Builder Enterprise with Lawson, we have saved the cost of one full time employee (FTE) who was involved in manually processing commitments and invoices," said Dennis Clausen, Director of Support Services for Inova Facilities Management Department (FIMD). "We also eliminated potential data entry errors and sped up the processing of payments since it is totally electronic. Most importantly, at any time, we have complete transparency to project performance and spend, enabling us to make informed decisions."

"Too often, capital project information is developed and stored in disparate applications across multiple departments and organizations, increasing the risk of cost, schedule, quality and scope impacts," said Chris Bell, e-Builder's Vice President of Marketing.  "e-Builder AppXchange enables customers of e-Builder Enterprise to connect and share data with other enterprise systems such as ERP, GIS, IWMS, CRM and many more. This allows for efficient collaboration between all project participants and reduces data silos and non-value added overhead." 

e-Builder AppXchange tools enable the integration of e-Builder Enterprise with third-party solutions and can increase team productivity by allowing real-time data to flow from one system to another. The project team no longer needs to piece together information to have a meaningful conversation.  In addition, budgets, funding data, contracts, and invoices can flow between e-Builder Enterprise and financial accounting software delivering the project team and finance group accurate, up-to-date information without duplicate entry.
