IT and business systems built for commercial contractors.
Kalashnix Consulting works with general contractors, subcontractors and fabricators to set up the software, data and workflows that run estimating, project management and the back office. Advice comes from people who have bid jobs, run projects and managed shop floors.
One consulting practice, structured around how a construction company runs.
Each engagement starts with your current process and ends with systems your team uses every day.
