Bernards' Vice President, Scott Shald, who is responsible for developing and deploying corporate initiatives, stated, "After being introduced to Textura we quickly realized the implementation of CPM would accelerate our strategy of using leading technologies to improve our business processes.  We look forward to realizing efficiencies in our payment management processes, as well as providing our subcontractors with standard billing and compliance management through improved online visibility, not to mention faster access to cash through electronic payments."

Patrick Allin, Textura Chairman and CEO, commented, "Bernards is a market leader in green building and is ranked number 73 on ENR's 'Top Green Contractors Nationwide.'  They were one of the early adopters of BIM and are one of the few contractors with real and meaningful IPD experience.  Bernards' selection team completed a detailed review of available invoicing systems, including building their own, and chose Textura. We are proud to add Bernards to the Textura family."

Jeff Bernards, Bernards' Vice President, added, "We expect to mitigate risk, achieve improved processes, standardized our processes across all projects and gain overall efficiencies for staff.  CPM enables us to bring cutting-edge process improvements to our continued tradition of delivering complex and challenging projects in a manner that exceed our clients' expectations."
