Richardson, TX (PRWEB) January 14, 2014

Systemates, Inc. is excited to announce a new partnership with New Jersey City University. With multiple major projects planned, New Jersey City University sought a construction project management software that would efficiently streamline their upcoming construction projects. After reviewing several vendors, NJCU deemed Projectmates to be the best fit.

New Jersey City University recently announced three major construction projects planned: a 103,000 sq. ft. West Campus Academic building, expansion and renovation of their current Science building, and a 415 bed residence hall. In addition, NJCU will also be undertaking several renovation projects designed to meet the needs of their academic programs in coordination with the school’s Facilities Master Plan. As a result of the variety and scope of the projects, NJCU decided to look into a construction management solution that fit the needs of education programs.

“Projectmates demonstrated that it was the best fit for our needs,” said Andrew Christ, Associate Vice President, and Deborah Morales, Associate Director of Facilities and Construction Management. “It is focused on construction project management; has a variety of templates that we can use, provides excellent ‘at your fingertips’ executive reports, is cloud based, and was within budget.”

NJCU’s main needs consisted of a tool that would provide consistent and streamlined processes of their cost tracking. Not only does Projectmates have the ability to streamline workflows, it also stores and manages all related construction data in one location. Because Projectmates is a web-based multi-platform solution, all team members, from project managers through Directors, can input information anywhere at any time.

Additionally, Projectmates’ extensive out-of-the-box reporting feature allows for a snapshot of individual projects as well as the construction program in its entirety. Executive management at NJCU will now have access to project information at a moment’s time, engaging team members and partners in a way that encourages collaboration and provides historical data for future planning needs.

Mooyah Restaurant Chain Shakes it up with Projectmates Construction Management Software

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) April 10, 2012

Systemates, Inc. today announced that fast casual restaurant chain MOOYAH, home of the Better Burger and no dud spud, will leverage Projectmates construction management software for its rapidly growing franchise chain. MOOYAH is among the top movers and shakers in the restaurant industry with over a dozen restaurants under construction currently and 50 to 60 new restaurants expected to open later this year across the U.S.

Projectmates puts the organization of our data on steroids, said Tom Pritzkau, Construction Director at MOOYAH. It will impact our ability to provide data and communicate with our stakeholders while providing our entire staff with the ability to do more work efficiently with less time spent.

Projectmates stands apart from other construction project management software for restaurant construction when it comes to ease of use, flexible configuration, and cost tracking business process automation. For example, single-page project summary reports provide project updates with critical vitals so high-level stakeholders as well as franchisees quickly get the pulse of their projects without having to navigate through complex software.

MOOYAH will use the construction management software for the entire restaurant construction process, from the time a franchisee and site are selected though design, construction, and restaurant grand opening. As a central information hub, Projectmates will even house training guides for food preparation and store maintenance.

With new restaurants opening across the country, MOOYAH will also leverage the mapping feature in Projectmates. Projects can be tracked geographically on a map with the ability to filter by region, project manager, and franchisee. Not only that, MOOYAH will be able to pinpoint visually those projects that are complete, in progress, and overdue.
