Construction Software Companies & Consultants in Golden, CO

BuilderMT is a software company based in Lakewood, Colorado. It makes workflow and building-process management tools for residential construction. Since its founding in 2001 it has focused on production home builders, both single-family and multi-family, who need a structured way to run every house through the same repeatable steps. Industry listings say more than 1,000 builders have bought BuilderMT systems, and around 10,000 home building professionals have used its desktop workflow tools.

Products and capabilities

The core offering is the Workflow Management Suite, known as WMS. It is a set of connected modules for a builder's main back-office and field work. Buyers looking at the suite will find tools for:

• Estimating and bidding, including lot-specific bills of material
• Purchasing and purchase order creation tied to models and options
• Scheduling for superintendents and trade partners
• Trade collaboration, covering bid requests, quotes, payments and documents
• CRM and sales automation through Sales Simplicity
• Warranty management and closing support

Builder Portal is the company's newer web platform. It is offered as a subscription that runs in BuilderMT's hosted cloud, and builders can also host it themselves. It lets users add custom fields to records, and builders set up their models and options database with a drag-and-drop interface. A companion product, Portal Mobile, gives superintendents and subcontractors screens tailored to their roles in the field.

How it fits a builder's technology stack

BuilderMT does not replace a builder's accounting system. Its software is built to work alongside established accounting packages and other jobsite tools. The company co-developed a Production Management solution with Sage for Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate users. It has also offered links to supply-chain tools such as Hyphen's SupplyPro and to business intelligence products.

Marketing material from the MiTek era says the company also provided estimating, BIM and plan drafting services. That work starts from the 2D CAD or 3D model and carries accurate material quantities through to purchase orders.

Background and ownership

MiTek, a Berkshire Hathaway company, bought BuilderMT in 2015 and added it to its line of operations software for production builders. President Tom Gebes and his leadership team stayed on to run the business after that deal. In July 2024, ECI Software Solutions took over BuilderMT together with Sales Simplicity.

That gave existing customers access to ECI's wider set of ERP tools for residential construction. BuilderMT has said its WMS product has won more than 25 technology awards since 2004. Its users have been in the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

For buyers comparing construction software, BuilderMT fits best with production-oriented builders that use standardized plans and options. Builders who want process discipline, purchasing control and close coordination with their trade partners will get the most from it. Builders doing mostly one-off custom homes may find other platforms a better match.
