Beck Technology, an industry leader in preconstruction technology, and Eos Group, a preconstruction systems integrator with decades of enterprise expertise, announced a strategic partnership designed to transform data-driven decision-making in preconstruction.
The partnership includes the joint development of a bi-directional integration between Beck Technology’s DESTINI Estimator and Eos Group’s Eos Cortex platform, a powerful solution for data analytics, benchmarking, and conceptual estimating. This seamless integration will enable construction teams to move data effortlessly between estimating and analytics environments, improving accuracy, efficiency, and strategic insight across the project lifecycle.
“This partnership represents a natural evolution of both companies’ strengths. By enabling bi-directional workflows between DESTINI and Cortex, we’re connecting estimating execution with analytics and benchmarking in a way that helps teams move faster and make better decisions.” says Stewart Carroll, CCO, Beck Technology
Enabling Closed-Loop Preconstruction Workflows
Building on Beck Technology’s strong presence within the general contractor (GC) and construction manager (CM) enterprise market, this partnership is designed to expand the reach of DESTINI into historically underserved segments. These include project owners, engineers, EPC firms, federal agencies, and organizations across infrastructure and process industries - markets where Eos Group has developed deep domain expertise over more than two decades.
As part of the agreement, Eos Group will serve as Beck Technology’s dedicated market representative across the owner and non-GC/CM sectors. In this role, Eos Group will deliver comprehensive implementation and advisory services, including staff augmentation, database and knowledgebase development, custom reporting, and high-touch onboarding experiences typically reserved for large-scale enterprise deployments.
“Eos Group has spent more than 30 years bridging the gap between data and strategy in the construction industry. Pairing our expertise with Beck’s platform creates a closed-loop approach, where insights do not just live in dashboards but flow back into the estimating process to drive consistency and better outcomes,” said Nick Papadopoulos, CEO of Eos Group.
“When analytics inform estimating in real time, rather than after the fact, teams gain more value from their data. The DESTINI–Cortex integration is designed to support that round-trip workflow,” said Tony Colburn, senior consultant at Eos Group.
Integration Roadmap
The DESTINI Estimator–Cortex integration is being developed on a shared technical foundation designed to enable true bi-directional connectivity while reducing reliance on manual exports, spreadsheet reformatting, and duplicate data entry. This modern architecture ensures a seamless flow of information between platforms and positions both solutions for continued innovation.
As the integration evolves, joint clients can expect expanding capabilities that will enable them to:
- Publish estimate and project data from DESTINI directly into Cortex to power advanced analytics, benchmarking, interactive dashboards, and conceptual comparisons
- Return structured insights from Cortex into DESTINI, including standards, assumptions, and performance guidance, to enhance estimate accuracy, consistency, and repeatability
- Drive more standardized estimating practices across regions, teams, and project types through an analytics-informed workflow
The companies introduced the partnership in a soft launch at the 2025 Advancing Preconstruction Conference in San Diego, where early market response was overwhelmingly positive.
CONTACT Software partners with TrAxxion to support Benelux manufacturers
10 March 2026
The partnership offers companies in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg end-to-end digital solutions that streamline processes and enhance shop floor efficiency. CONTACT and TrAxxion have already worked together closely in previous projects.
The Benelux region is one of Europe’s industrial powerhouses and boasts a strong innovation culture. To remain on top in the global market, however, manufacturers must streamline processes and improve operational transparency. CONTACT Software now partners with Luxembourg-based consultancy TrAxxion to deliver digital solutions to companies in the region faster. The partnership combines the leading PLM, IIoT, and MES platform CONTACT Elements with TrAxxion’s implementation experience and deep understanding of the Benelux manufacturing industry.
CONTACT Elements merges data silos into an integrated data and process backbone, accelerates workflows and fosters enterprise-wide collaboration. Manufacturers benefit from real-time shop floor KPIs, automated reporting, and efficient production scheduling. The platform supports cloud deployment and provides AI capabilities to optimize processes from product development to manufacturing and service. Its modular architecture allows for gradual expansion, making it a future-proof solution that can be adapted to changing market requirements.
As a strategic distribution and implementation partner, TrAxxion supports customers in the Benelux region throughout their entire transformation journey: from needs analysis and consulting to the development of a digital roadmap, system deployment, configuration, and the integration of CONTACT Elements into existing digital ecosystems. Their experts ensure lasting success through training, change management, and ongoing optimization and advisory services.
“Through multiple joint projects in the past years, a strong relationship of trust has grown between our teams. This convinced us not only of the people behind CONTACT, but also of the strength of their platform”, said François Styga, Partner at TrAxxion. “We are convinced that this partnership brings world-class digital transformation to Benelux SMEs – in a pragmatic way, with a clear focus on benefit realization rather than technology for technology’s sake.”
“The Benelux region is a key innovation hub for industries such as semiconductors and advanced mobility, making it a strategically important market for industrial digitalization”, said Dimitri Baumtrok, Head of International Business at CONTACT Software. “With TrAxxion, we have a trusted advisor by our side who understands both the strategic and operational realities of manufacturing transformation. Together, we help companies move from isolated digital initiatives to connected, data-driven processes from top floor to shop floor based on CONTACT Elements.”
Join CONTACT’s and TrAxxion’s joint webcast“From PDM to PLM: More Than Engineering Benefits” on April 1st to learn how SMEs can overcome limitations of their current PDM system by upgrading to a modern PLM solution, and why they ultimately benefit from reduced IT costs and faster product development.
