Burlington, MA, June 01, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Vela Systems, Inc. recently marked the one-year anniversary of its award-winning Vela Field Management Software Suite with record numbers of new customers, company-wide deployments, revenue, and product usage.
The Vela Field Management Suite includes:
· Vela Web: a cloud-computing based web platform;
· Vela Mobile: an iPad app for online and offline field work;
· And Vela Reports: a dashboard for construction executives.
The suite enables construction field management with the use of technology like iPads at the point of construction to enable programs for quality, safety, commissioning, Field BIM® and more.
Explosive Company Momentum
In just the last six months, seven different ENR400 companies have decided on enterprise deployments of the Vela Field Management Suite, including Hunter Roberts Construction Group, Clayco, Shiel Sexton, Dimeo Construction Company, CF Jordan, Bond Brothers and Rosendin Electric. Notable project wins have included Transbay, the $4B multi-year project to update the San Francisco transit system, a University Health Systems hospital renovation, Parkland Hospital, the National Gallery of Art renovation in Washington, DC, and the GSA Rodino Courthouse, a GSA “BIM for FM” focus project.
Vela Systems continues to garner widespread industry adoption and recognition for its innovation and leadership. According to the 2011 Constructech IT Playbook Industry survey regarding field technology product usage, “The numbers show that Vela Systems is separating from the pack…” The survey of construction industry professionals showed Vela Systems has more than 2x market share than any other field software player in the industry.
“Technology advances like the iPad are accelerating the revolution in field management in construction. Customers are using our software and this new generation of field devices to reduce risk, improve profitability, and win more work in what remains a challenging construction market,” said Tim Curran, CEO at Vela Systems. “They’ve expanded beyond initial project deployments into larger, more enterprise-wide usage. We’re committed to meeting market requirements rapidly through our agile, customer-driven development process. Our iPad application is already in its 12th version and the Vela Field Management Suite is providing our customers with the mobility, control and reporting they need to drive programs for quality, safety, and BIM-enabled construction, commissioning, and handover.”
