COINS thanks all of the clients that joined us for the 2016 COINS USA Conference in Albany, NY.
Over 150 construction industry professionals came together September 12th through September 14th to explore how the challenges affecting the industry are better solved with the efficient use of technology and how COINS’ relentless investment in research and innovation delivers construction software solutions that our clients and their stakeholders can use to accurately plan, forecast and deliver projects on-time and on-budget. Providing solutions that offer much more than those offered by a traditional construction ERP.
Our close-knit relationship with clients made this event the perfect meeting-point to learn, innovate, share experiences and together build for the future.
Highlights of the 2016 COINS USA Conference in Albany, NY.
I set out in this talk with the ambitious target of demonstrating that building value through innovation is more than just a tagline for COINS. I hope that through a better understanding of the values and our approach to business at COINS that I have come close to achieving that target.
