North Carolina General Contractor Sets the Stage for Scalable Growth with Cloud-Based Solution


CMiC Construction Platform selected for unified approach to accounting and project management

TORONTO, Aug. 19, 2020 – Charlotte, North Carolina-based general contracting firm, Jenison Construction, has selected CMiC, North America’s innovation leader in construction-focused ERP and field operations, as its accounting and project management software of choice. With over 30 years in business, Jenison Construction has a strong presence in the mid-Atlantic region, particularly in the commercial, industrial, high-tech and healthcare markets, with facilities ranging up to 100,000 square feet. As the volume of work, particularly in healthcare, has continued to grow, the company’s internal process efficiencies have begun to suffer.

“For years, we’ve relied on spreadsheets and emails to manage projects, which has created a disparate data trail and led to inefficiencies,” says George Jenison, IV, Project Manager at Jenison Construction. “We had tried a construction productivity solution, but our field staff struggled with the transition, and it didn’t solve our disconnect with accounting. For better cost control, we wanted a solution that could handle both accounting and project management.”

Earlier this year, the company conducted a comprehensive evaluation of top ERP solutions. “CMiC was the clear winner,” Jenison says. “From the initial evaluation, we felt CMiC’s 360° approach fit our needs, and we especially liked the construction emphasis, ease of use, customer service approach and the ability to expand applications as our needs change.”

The company will go live with CMiC in September. “We’re excited for Jenison Construction to join the CMiC family,” remarks Laurent Amar, vice president of SMB sales at CMiC. “Too often, mid-size and small construction companies don’t believe they can afford top-tier accounting and project management solutions because of cost, complexity and/or time to deploy. That’s simply not the case with CMiC’s purpose-built Cloud solution, which is used by hundreds of small and mid-size general and specialty contractors throughout North America. We look forward to helping Jenison scale their business and realize their potential in the mid-Atlantic region and beyond, adds Amar.”
