The advantage of industry-specific ERP
Generic ERPs struggle to reflect the fast-moving, fragmented realities of construction and infrastructure delivery. Operate is different—built from the ground up for the AEC. By aligning directly with industry workflows, terminology, and compliance requirements, Operate eliminates the need for workarounds, spreadsheets, and bolt-ons.
The result? Faster implementation, higher adoption, and better data integrity across the board. Operate empowers your teams to make smarter decisions in real time, reduce rework, and gain a competitive edge-without forcing your business to adapt to software that wasn’t made for it.
