\"\"<\/p>

Construction companies are increasingly using hosted cloud phone systems to improve communication, track materials and coordinate designs between teams. This helps them manage projects better and keep up with the fast pace of the industry.<\/p>

Across the U.S., nearly 753,000 firms<\/a> in the construction industry employ more than 7.8 million people. This includes carpenters, electricians, project managers, site managers, masons, plumbers, welders, glaziers, surveyors, engineers, architects, and the list goes on.\u00a0 Collectively, they build over $1.8 trillion worth of structures each year.<\/p>

Strong, Ongoing Growth<\/h3>

Construction projects which were canceled in the past have restarted. Low-interest rates mean the construction industry will keep growing. The U.S. industry could be worth over $1.8 trillion a year by 2027,<\/a> with an average yearly growth rate of 4.84%.<\/p>

Communication Challenges<\/h3>

Communication in the construction industry, with its distributed teams and fast-paced changes, proves challenging due to the lack of face-to-face discussions. According to a study by PlanGrid and consultancy FMI Corp<\/a>., 26% of rework on construction projects is the result of poor communication between team members \u2014 a gap that is costing the industry as a whole over $31 billion a year.<\/p>

Fortunately, that is where our modern, hosted cloud phone system makes a transformative difference between failure and success in the construction industry!<\/strong><\/p>

Key Benefits<\/h2>

Mobile and Remote Working<\/h2>

Our iOS and Android app<\/a> makes it easier for construction teams to stay in touch, from anywhere. They can make\/receive calls, send messages, check call history, access directories, and look up other team members’ status. No need to drive to the office or trailer. Plus, outgoing calls appear with the business’s caller ID info, not the individual worker’s!<\/p>

Business Continuity<\/em><\/h2>

Losing communication during a power outage during a construction project can significantly hurt productivity, efficiency, and even the health and safety of workers because they are unable to access critical information. Our cloud phone system continues <\/a>operating even in the event of a local power outage \u2014 from relatively short brownouts (which are more common than ever due to the country’s aging and over-burdened infrastructure) to longer blackouts caused by natural disasters, severe weather, or unnatural emergencies<\/a>.<\/p>

Prepare your business for potential disasters. Don\u2019t wait until it\u2019s too late \u2013 consider using a cloud-based phone system for disaster preparedness. Here are just a few benefits:<\/p>
