Smarter Construction Operations – Without the Disruption.
Are you spending millions on proprietary software, yet still doing too many things manually? Most rigid systems force contractors to conform to the software - instead of software that conforms to the contractor. The result is inconsistent processes, manual rework and a constant struggle to keep projects aligned.
Familiar, Flexible, & Efficient
OpenBuild is a Microsoft-based solution that feels familiar because it is familiar. It is flexible and built on tools your teams already know and trust. OpenBuild brings your data together and removes inefficiencies without the disruption of a full system overhaul.
By Contractors, For Contractors
As contractors ourselves, we have lived with tools that never fit the way real work happens. We know what it is like to fight with software that slows you down. We built OpenBuild so you can stop struggling with your tools and focus instead on getting the job done.

See What Our OpenBuild Customers Have to Say
Several years ago, our founder wanted a better way for contractors to get their work done without being bogged down by software that’s created by developers who don’t understand construction or even set foot on a job site. This vision came to life thanks to our team, but the real story is told by our customers.
Clear Visibility Through Structure and Support
"Construction projects are dynamic, and having clear visibility into job performance is critical as we grow. We were looking for a solution that could help us without forcing us to overhaul everything we already have in place. Runding’s approach allows us to build on our current systems while giving us the visibility and structure we need moving forward."
Great User Adoption & Cost Savings
"Runding understands our business and we were able to achieve results very quickly. Within two months we were able to deliver our first application, Tilson Onboarding, with great user adoption and cost savings."
Intertwining Data Within Workflows
Working with Runding and the OpenBuild app has been an eye opening experience on what all can be accomplished and how much data can be intertwined between different functions within our company.
Taking The Time To Understand The Need
"From the start, they took the time to understand our needs and offered thoughtful solutions tailored to our business. We truly value our partnership with Runding and look forward to continued success together."
A Real Contractor-First Approach
"Smart Estimator gives us a flexible, contractor-first approach that brings consistency and control to our estimating function while unlocking efficiency gains."
Confidence by Consistent Success
"Choosing Runding for our process and data integration initiative was a game-changer. Their in-depth knowledge of construction and consistent project success gave me full confidence they were the right fit for the job."
Modernizing By Listening First
"OpenBuild not only modernized our database but also added features that enhanced accessibility across all company divisions. They attentively listened to our requirements and tailored the database to meet them."
A Truly Flexible Approach

More Than Consultants
"Runding's ability to not only build what we need but also advise and consult based on industry best practices has been incredibly valuable. They’ve helped guide us in designing a CRM system that works for us, not the other way around."
Leveraging Labor KPIs in a Whole New Way
"Our growth exposed the limitations of relying on spreadsheets and email. Implementing a centralized solution gives our team mobile access in the field, automates time tracking, and helps us get in front of our labor KPIs in a whole new way."
Revolutionizing Our Industry
"By teaming up with Runding and deploying OpenBuild, we’re making large strides on our digital roadmap in our pursuit to revolutionize the way our industry approaches tower asset management."
Setup For Scalable Improvements

The Perfect Choice for Complex Integration
"With our long history working with the Runding team, I knew they were the perfect choice for MD&B’s complex data integration project. Runding’s expertise in the construction industry, combined with their successful track record, made it my go-to for this challenge."
Clear Visibility Through Structure and Support
"Construction projects are dynamic, and having clear visibility into job performance is critical as we grow. We were looking for a solution that could help us without forcing us to overhaul everything we already have in place. Runding’s approach allows us to build on our current systems while giving us the visibility and structure we need moving forward."
Focused on Scalability
"We could not simply adopt a one-size-fits-all estimating tool that forces us to change how we operate. We focused on building a scalable commercial engine that supports growth across all of our operating companies."
Impacting Growth When It Matters Most
"This isn’t about just digitizing documents; it’s about monetizing contracts... Smart Agreements brings the right contract data to the right people at the right time, which directly impacts growth, speed, accuracy, and margin protection."
