Texada Software last week announced that Mortenson Construction has successfully deployed Texada’s Systematic asset management system within its equipment facility network to manage its construction assets throughout North America.

Mortenson performed a detailed evaluation process that initially started with 12 asset management software vendors prior to the eventual selection of Texada. The key business drivers for Mortenson were the focus on construction asset management, the ability to provide rental house functionality, and willingness to provide Mortenson with key Texada support members that grew to understand the Mortenson business model. In addition, Texada fully understood the need for seamless integration with Oracle’s ERP solution.

“With the implementation of the SRM software system, Mortenson is positioned to manage inventory of company-owned assets, consumables, equipment maintenance records, equipment utilization and schedules, rental contracts and services to our project sites,” said Edgar Butsch, director of equipment operations for Mortenson’s Construction. “These consistent processes and new functionality will deliver a higher level of service to our customers, resulting in higher utilization of the equipment we manage.”

Mortenson Construction is a U.S.-based, family-owned construction company. It provides a complete range of services, including planning, program management, preconstruction, general contracting, construction management, design-build and turn-key development. Mortenson has offices in Chicago, Denver, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Phoenix, and Seattle with international operations in Canada and China.

Headquartered in Guelph, Ontario, Texada Software provides enterprise software solutions for equipment rental and mobile equipment.
