The AEC industry plays a vital role in the global economy - it reached $8.9 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to $16.5 billion by 2030. While this brings a lot of opportunity, AEC firms still face a number of challenges, including a shortage of qualified workers. Technology will play an integral role in helping businesses take on new projects as they look for ways to do more with less.
Leading the way is MTWO Construction Cloud, a game changer in the industry. Its robust functionality, connected data, and commitment to sustainability can deliver time and cost savings at every stage of the project lifecycle, transforming the way projects are delivered. SoftwareOne is the global distribution and service provider for MTWO Construction Cloud, But we know that technology doesn’t create impact on its own. It’s the people who implement that technology that makes the difference between business success or an expensive mistake.
Discover what it takes to become a SoftwareOne MTWO consultant and what you should be looking for in your AEC technology consultants.
It’s not enough to simply understand how construction cloud technology works, you need a team who understands the ins and outs of the AEC industry, how to efficiently manage construction projects and how technology can play a pivotal role in ensuring successful projects. We have assembled a team of consultants with deep industry roots.
Our team has previous experience as engineers, architects, and project managers to name a few. That’s because first-hand experience working in the AEC industry is a primary requirement to join our team of consulting professionals. They speak your local language and are fluent in industry terms and concepts. You will be working with a team who intuitively understand your challenges as they’ve been there. This reduces the learning curve and means you reach outcomes faster.
When hired, our consultants go through a rigorous onboarding process to ensure an in-depth understanding of the software. This training enhances our consultants’ knowledge in software development and product implementation, complementing their extensive hands-on AEC experience.
Our consultants earn their MTWO Certification before joining our team. To obtain the certification, consultants must demonstrate deep knowledge of MTWO’s capabilities, exhibit strong communication skills, and be able to utilise and configure the platform with ease. Our certification process ends with a presentation to a panel of judges and product experts who evaluate the skills acquired during the onboarding process.
Our team is strategically located across the globe to better serve our clients. We have representation throughout NORAM, LATAM, APAC, and EMEA. But with our team members spread out, we also believe it’s important to come together for in-person collaboration. Our consulting teams gather in each region once a quarter to participate in group learning and workshop sessions. This includes activities such as presenting lessons learned through working with our clients and setting up mock implementation scenarios. These opportunities help our consultants further strengthen their skills, knowledge, and effectiveness with the software.
Don Boron from Digital Energy, a division of Schneider Electric, was impressed with the flexibility of MTWO and the presentation that the team gave at a recent workshop.
The team did a great job of preparing and understanding our business prior to our meeting and they tailored their presentation to our business and processes. The SoftwareOne team was also patient with us as we walked through the screens and asked our questions. They were able to give examples of where they could customize some data and screens to help us better manage our projects
