Each year, Customer Service Week is observed to highlight the importance of customer service and celebrate those who dedicate their careers to supporting customers. Although it is just one week, observed this year from October 7-11, here at ConstructConnect®, we rally around a shared commitment to Deliver Customer Value every day throughout the year.

This year’s AIA Conference on Architecture & Design (AIA24) in Washington, D.C., may have drawn to a close, but here are three key takeaways from the show curated by the ConstructConnect team to help building product manufacturers and preconstruction professionals improve year-round planning, quickly qualify projects, track trends, and ultimately increase their specification rates and project pipelines.

NextGen is a group of dedicated individuals and professionals from ConstructConnect that are committed to inspiring the next generation of youth to consider and join the construction workforce. With a nationwide labor shortage and a frightening gap between the demand for workers and the number of qualified people searching for construction jobs, action must be taken to encourage students to enter this lucrative and diverse workforce.

For the second time in 2023, ConstructConnect is being named one of Comparably’s Best Places to Work. This time, ConstructConnect is honored to be among the winners of the awards for “Best Leadership Teams” and “Best CEOs for Women.”

The process and care that goes into building a community are never-ending. While access to plans and resources is key, the people and intent behind it matter more. When you think about the celebration of Juneteenth and how it applies to you, think about the growth of your community and the ideas that drive progress. We’re better together and everyone can get behind efforts to bring people into a universal celebration of freedom and liberty.

As we reflect on another year of challenge and change, we're looking back at some of our most popular posts from 2021. But, of course, these articles wouldn't have been possible without your support. We're grateful to our subscribers and the support you've shown us over the past year. We look forward to connecting with you in 2022!

Time, talent, treasure. These are the core tenets of ConstructConnect’s outreach efforts. We believe that each person is suited differently to give differently. That’s why we recognize a variety of options, empowering the organization, both on a corporate level and as individual team members, to give “the three” away.

It’s not unusual to find companies that encourage their employees to volunteer in the community. But it’s exciting to work for one that not only talks the talk but helps its team members walk the walk.
