“This agreement gives buyers for federal government construction and infrastructure projects ready access to our portfolio of collaboration solutions through Carahsoft,” said Chris Dobbyn, senior vice president of corporate development at Aconex. “On these projects, as well as public-private partnership (P3) infrastructure developments, we have helped owners and contractors improve efficiency and reduce risk while saving time and costs throughout the project lifecycle — from feasibility and design through construction, handover and asset operation. With increasing pressure on federal spending and demand for infrastructure, project-wide collaboration for capital projects has become key to delivering value to the U.S. government and the American people.”
