Industry Leading API Helps Combat Labor Shortages and Material Pricing Fluctuations\u00a0<\/em><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

MIAMI, Sept. 19, 2023 –\u00a0<\/strong>1build<\/strong><\/a>, the only API for live construction cost data, today announced a partnership with\u00a0Buildxact<\/strong><\/a>, a leading construction management software provider, to power its new complementary Pricing Assistant feature. 1build\u2019s API will connect directly to Buildxact\u2019s Pricing Assistant, allowing residential contractors to search within the platform for real-time prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1build offers more than 68 million live data points covering construction prices across materials, labor, and equipment, so Buildxact customers across the U.S. can have access to the most accurate data on the market, along with the most comprehensive estimation tool on the market.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cFor residential contractors, generating accurate bids that maximize profitability without creating additional work is more important than ever,\u201d said 1build Founder and CEO\u00a0Dmitry Alexin<\/strong><\/a>. \u201cAccess to live construction costs creates efficiencies in the takeoff and estimation process, meaning contractors can send more accurate estimates to dealers in less time, keeping projects on track and on budget. By partnering with 1build, Buildxact is providing their users with a superior cost estimating and project management experience that will ensure contractors stay ahead of their competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Reports published at the beginning of 2023 estimated that in order to meet the demand for labor this year, an\u00a0additional 500,000+ workers<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>would need to be hired. The tumultuous market for materials coupled with an ongoing labor shortage has crippled the ability of residential contractors to supply two critical resources to local job sites.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"ABy providing them with this digital assistant powered by 1build, residential contractors can refocus on actually managing projects and the people that make them possible, rather than double-checking budgets. Located in one convenient platform for estimating, scheduling, ordering, and project communications, together, 1build and Buildxact offer a way to do takeoffs faster and with better accuracy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cResidential contractors are under pressure to keep bids reasonable and stay within budgets. 1build\u2019s data now allows us to provide something as simple as the actual market price for labor in a specific location,\u201d said Buildxact CEO David Murray. \u201cBuildxact continues to innovate to provide a simpler, more efficient, and more powerful tool for residential contractors to be successful.\u201d<\/p>\n
