EllisDon announces the addition of two new Technology Ecosystem Strategic Partners to our growing list of preferred technology suppliers — StruxHub and Touchplan. This marks the next step in EllisDon’s larger technology strategy, led by our Data & Digital Division, deploying over two decades of experience in self-performed software development, data management, and technology implementation from within the construction industry.
EllisDon is committed to extending our values of trust, openness, mutual accountability, and entrepreneurial enthusiasm into the technology space. This means building relationships with providers, acting on an ambitious enterprise-wide technology strategy, and providing our construction teams with the best support available.
StruxHub and Touchplan are both well-respected brands within the industry and are excellently aligned with our corporate values. Additionally, they will provide software to assist in the coordination of material delivery and scheduling of work.
“StruxHub and Touchplan are both well-positioned to complement our tech stack and meet the evolving needs of our construction teams,” said Hammad Chaudhry, Vice President of Innovation and Construction Technology, EllisDon. “As we navigate a paradigm shift in the construction industry, partnerships like these enable EllisDon’s Data & Digital Engineering team to build a unique tech ecosystem designed to support our project teams and clients while providing them with best-in-class tools and solutions.”
“For several years, we have been inspired by EllisDon’s adroit use of our Touchplan platform solution and, more broadly, by their disciplined, innovative approach to digital transformation,” says Sandy Hamby, CEO, MSI. “We are honored by this new partnership, which will allow us to learn from each other and work together to transform construction from an analog, artisanal industry to a digitized, highly automated one.”
“With EllisDon’s vision, scale, and collaborative spirit, we have an amazing opportunity to help teams deliver projects more efficiently through streamlined deliveries, logistics, and jobsite coordination,” says Jeff Chen, CEO, StruxHub. “In doing so, we aim to establish new standards of operational efficiency for jobsites and their construction supply chains.”
EllisDon will continue to grow its Technology Ecosystem Strategic Partnerships by building on new relationships with this year’s second Technology Accelerator. The EllisDon Construction-Tech Accelerator is focused on accelerating promising startups and their technology deployment on construction jobsites in Canada with support and guidance.
