SAN FRANCISCO — Fieldwire, a leading construction field management solution, announced today that EllisDon, one of Canada’s top construction services and consulting companies, has chosen Fieldwire to drive jobsite productivity across all of their projects.The $3.5 billion contractor’s decision to standardize on Fieldwire comes after more than three years of usage across hundreds of projects. EllisDon deployed and used the jobsite coordination platform on major projects, including Brookfield Place in Calgary, Providence Care Hospital in Kingston, the York University Subway in Toronto, and the recently begun $9B Vancouver airport expansion project.

“The construction industry is changing at a rapid pace. Leveraging technology allows us to further drive productivity at the project level,” said Tom Strong, EllisDon’s Chief Technology Officer. “Fieldwire helps our project teams deliver very high quality results by connecting us seamlessly with our clients and trade partners.”The enterprise agreement between EllisDon and Fieldwire covers all internal employees, as well as trade partners, clients, architects, and consultants involved in EllisDon’s projects. “Our industry has not always been the most forthcoming about sharing information,” added Strong. “By providing Fieldwire to anyone involved on our projects, we promote transparency and ownership in our construction process.”

“We are excited to enter this new phase in our partnership with EllisDon,” said Javed Singha, co-founder & COO of Fieldwire. ”As a customer, EllisDon has always granted us great access to their project teams to collect feedback and support their use cases. It has been a win-win for both organizations and a critical success factor in creating a leading field management solution.”
