In the preconstruction landscape, where projects are conceived and planned before the first brick is laid, ConCntric is making its mark. This innovative tech startup is on a mission to transform the construction and real estate industry and make waves with its preconstruction management software. But what prompted their selection of a name that mirrors the structure of concentric circles, and what does it mean in the context of their groundbreaking work?

The name ConCntric is not a random choice; it’s a deliberate reflection of the company’s core values and vision.

The name ConCntric was a perfect fit, considering the software was built for the CONstruction industry and their CENTRal focus is on accuracy and setting the table for success. In construction and real estate, preconstruction serves as the common center, the pivotal point around which every project revolves and upon which the table for success is set. Hence, ConCntric embodies the belief that preconstruction is the nucleus of successful projects, where everything converges and takes shape.

ConCntric also represents amplification, vision and collaboration.

Amplification:

Not unlike the pattern you see when a pebble hits a body of water, the name ConCntric—derived from concentric circles—represents amplification. Amplified value in the sense that the ripple effect of what you start with today with only one pebble of data, will benefit you indefinitely.

Vision:

Similar to a lighthouse tower—a boat’s only sense of direction in the darkness—ConCntric’s central circle of data sheds light on all areas of the preconstruction process and illuminates data from project to project. 

Collaboration:

Teams work better when they work together. Circles of teams and information in the preconstruction phase held together by data and a single source of truth serve as the perfect grounding point for success. 

ConCntric’s mission statement underscores the significance of its name. Their goal is to create a preconstruction ecosystem that unites data, workflows, and people, ultimately ensuring an unparalleled certainty of project outcome and trust. This ecosystem centres around the preconstruction phase, where all of the vital decision-making and planning begins.

Moreover, ConCntric’s vision statement paints a picture of the built world they aspire to create – one that is more affordable, predictable, and sustainable. The common center, preconstruction, is where these aspirations are nurtured and put into action. By creating a single source of truth and unifying data, workflows, and people, ConCntric ensures that this vision can be realized.

The services offered by ConCntric further explain why this name holds such significance. Their platform acts as a central hub that unifies the entire preconstruction process. For General Contractors, Owners and Developers, Design Teams, and Subcontractors, ConCntric provides the means to collaborate effectively and efficiently. It delivers real-time insights and reliable data, a vital element of successful project planning. In the dynamic and rapidly evolving world of construction, having the latest information at your fingertips can be a game-changer. This real-time data helps stakeholders make informed decisions, pushing projects forward with confidence.

Furthermore, ConCntric aids in risk assessment and mitigation. Preconstruction is where potential problems can be identified and addressed before construction begins. By providing a robust platform for testing ideas and assessing risk, ConCntric enables stakeholders to make proactive decisions that can lead to more successful project outcomes.

ConCntric’s story begins with its Founder, Steve Dell’Orto, a construction industry veteran with deep domain expertise. Steve’s personal experience in the industry revealed the shortcomings of the preconstruction phase – a manual and fragmented process that needed a better solution. In response to these challenges, he set out to create ConCntric, a platform that would transform the preconstruction landscape.

The name ConCntric embodies the heart of this transformation. It symbolizes the common center, where preconstruction becomes the focal point of a project’s success. The deliberate alteration of the word accentuates this central role, making ConCntric a unique and powerful name in the tech startup landscape, with a hyper-focus on the construction and real estate industry.

In conclusion, ConCntric’s choice of name is not just a wordplay; it encapsulates their commitment to making preconstruction the center of successful projects. Their innovative platform unifies data, workflows, and people, providing a common center for collaboration and informed decision-making. As they continue their journey, ConCntric is eager to revolutionize the construction and real estate industry, and their name stands as a testament to their vision and mission.
