The construction industry is currently in a period of flux. While demand continues to grow, persistent challenges—like supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and rising costs—make it increasingly difficult for companies to complete projects on time and within budget. Quickbase’s survey of 400 construction leaders revealed that 95% had faced unexpected or increased costs over the past year, causing projects to go over budget. Quickbase has solved this issue with its AI-powered work management platform.

Why construction needs a smarter solution

Traditional construction workflows still heavily rely on manual processes and disconnected systems. Quickbase’s survey found that 91% of respondents still use paper in their workflows, leaving critical information vulnerable to errors, delays, and misplacement. This fragmented approach makes it nearly impossible for teams to respond effectively to rising costs and schedule delays.

Quickbase bridges this gap by providing a single, integrated platform to streamline workflows and improve team communication. By uniting data, people, and processes, construction professionals can gain real-time visibility into their projects, make faster decisions, and minimize costly mistakes.

One of the biggest advantages of Quickbase is its ability to offer real-time insights into every aspect of a project. Teams can track progress, flag issues, and adjust workflows instantly—all from a centralized platform. With AI-driven tools and mobile accessibility, construction leaders can move away from reactive decision-making and adopt a proactive approach.
