For contractors seeking to maintain or gain a competitive advantage in an increasingly complex construction industry, eCMS v.4.1 goes far beyond the typical reports and dashboards associated with integrated accounting and project management. The new release enables businesses to consistently improve their operations, conduct strategic long- and short-term planning, and gain an unparalleled edge through smarter business practices, smarter decision-making and, quite simply, smarter construction.

The cloud enhances and facilitates resource deployment through eCMS application interaction without having to install or configure modules on end-user devices. Project managers in the field, executives on the road, corporate staff in the office and project owners at off-site facilities can all view, share and act while leveraging the same data set through the eCMS ERP system.

Our users, especially our operations personnel, really appreciate the ability to access eCMS from any computer at any time, and this browser-based approach was a key differentiator for CGC when we were looking at options for our new ERP. With our projects extending further away from our Phoenix headquarters, as well as the evolution of the workplace in general, being able to connect to the ERP from the office, project site, hotel or home without having to access a VPN or terminal server has simplified access as well as created efficiency for the end user. Simply put there are no barriers to system access.
