Procore Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of construction management software, today announced that customer Cape Group is expanding its years-long relationship with Procore. Cape Group is standardizing its processes nationwide with Procore’s Quality and Safety tool, Action Plans, which enables the company to digitize its inspection and test plans (ITP) and improve quality assurance.
Vancouver-based Cape Group is a family-run real estate and development company founded in 1956 that prides itself on keeping the needs of the communities it works in top-of-mind. From rental units to warehouses, high-rises to master planned communities, mixed-use buildings to market housing and more, Cape Group has extensive experience with myriad types of projects.
The company chose Procore as its construction management solution for its comprehensiveness and proven track record. Today, Cape Group uses Procore to track all its projects, including real-time budgeting and cost control. The company uses Procore Analytics to turn project data into intelligence, including tracking and analyzing how long it takes for Requests For Information to receive a response.
“Cape Group is delivering projects around 10 per cent faster by using Procore, and we’re generating 10 times more revenue. We appreciate that Procore delivers continuous innovation in its platform,” said Zack Ross, Chief Operating Officer, Cape Group. “Procore has evolved the way we work at Cape Group. Standardizing tasks with Action Plans is the next step. We know from experience that Procore lets us deliver more value to our customers, which helps our business grow.”
Cape Group is now implementing Procore’s Action Plans in an effort to standardize its processes. Action Plans helps companies show clients and regulators that a job met quality standards and each stage was approved by a relevant party. Action Plans allows Cape Group to create templates for sequential work such as quality assurance, concrete pours and safety plans. Company-assigned approvers control when a plan can advance to the next step, allowing Cape Group to manage projects the same way on every job, whether the work is being done by local teams in Vancouver, Winnipeg, Ottawa or Toronto. Everything is tracked on the Procore platform, including proof of completion such as photos.
“The Procore platform is purpose-built for construction. A long-standing partner such as Cape Group incorporating Action Plans into its project management demonstrates that contractors can grow their business with Procore,” said Jas Saraw, Vice President, Canada at Procore.
