Liens and Preliens and Laughs Oh My with Amy Houk E10

Robert and J.J. meet up with Amy Houk, Chief Marketing/Product Officer with Prelien Pro Technologies to discuss all things liens and preliens. Amy is the authority and shares her wealth of knowledge with the guys, and shares the why behind Prelien Pro Technologies and the development of software for the world of construction. If you are a general contractor, subcontractor, or supplier this episode is a must have as a reference to often misunderstood statutes pertaining to the lien and prelien process and your rights.

General Contractors, Subcontractors and suppliers learn the answers to often misunderstood processes surrounding your lien rights. Prelien-Pro-Technologies-logo

Prelien Pro Technologies, Inc. began when a team of consultants were asked to develop an easier workflow for lien companies to manage the hundreds of prelien notices submitted to their company weekly. Once they dove into the structure and processes lien companies were utilizing, it became very obvious that the lack of “out-of-the-box” solutions was crippling this industry. Lien companies were spending 10’s of thousands of dollars to create custom, single-user solutions or relying on a dos-based, single desktop solution for software that was cumbersome, antiquated, and rigid. Shocked by what they found, they sought out the guidance of one of the most dynamic and successful CTO’s to wrestle the “ dot-com boom” they could find… one laptop, one monitor, and one hot conference room later, a dream team of developers, innovators, and consultants came together to form what would become Prelien Pro Technologies, Inc.

As they researched and learned more about this industry, they also found that construction companies were forced to submit their notice requests on an equally outdated interface. The team was shocked to hear that most construction companies weren’t too bothered by the legacy look and feel as most software they used at the time was just as clumsy. Realizing that the construction industry was ripe for a solution to weave together all of these processes and workflows, the team devised a strategy – to learn the lien management industry from the inside out. They achieved this by creating their own lien company, collaborating with the construction industry, and building a solution that solves all of the obvious (and not so obvious) issues this process had on the overall performance and cost of a project.

This strategy led to an immeasurable amount of input from the construction industry – not just from the builders, but also the suppliers, the funders, the developers, and the insurers. The team built relationships with every level of construction to prepare and plan for a development strategy that would lead them on a two-year journey of discovery, development, and some trial and error to create a single application – bringing together the multitude of excel spreadsheets, three-ring binders, filing cabinets, fax machines, and single-task applications that “solved” their day-to-day issues.

Today, Prelien Pro Technologies, Inc. has fully deployed its construction lien software (cls) application to the captive lien company with a second onboarding in mid to late 4th quarter, 2021. That application currently supports 466 construction firms, 1500 users, and 10 lien preparation professionals. They have also created the only fully embedded experience with Procore technologies and have a focus group of our target general contractors currently using the prelien pro application. Because of the strategic development plan outlined by our CTO, all further development is 75% (or more) completed as the foundational Prelien Pro Technologies, Inc. platform fully supports the additional products and services.

Amy-Houk-MAC-and-BleuAmy Houk’s history as a founding member of Prelien Pro has seen the company grow from a handful of valued relationships to a large and growing community of clients, industry partners, association affiliations, and friendships.

Amy brings a cool and dynamic element to the team. Her ability to forge relationships and create an open dialogue with clients has been a vital asset to our team. She brings over 20 years experience offering a variety of services and consultation to businesses.

Her expertise and knowledge with construction companies and the industry has made her a pivotal addition to the team.

When Amy isn’t working with the team, she spends her time promoting women’s equality in construction, donating her time to construction associations, going on photo safaris with her husband of 15 years, taking construction pics, traveling, and spending time with family (especially her new grand baby).

E72 Understanding Design Thinking with Bruce Gay

Are you familiar with Design Thinking? Are you utilizing Design Thinking to run your projects? In this episode we chat with Bruce Gay, Founder of Astrevo to understand the fundamentals and benefits of Design Thinking as well as touching on several other topics.

Bruce is a leader in the PM Industry and is an active community builder. He is a PMI Volunteer with PMI Pittsburgh, leads a Healthcare PMO, teaches part time at Norwich University and started his own firm, Astrevo. PMI-Pittsburgh-logo

In our discussion Bruce shares that Design Thinking allows groups of people to take time and look at their customers needs to deeply understand a problem and to start to brainstorm and down select solutions to solve those problems. The benefit to using Design Thinking is you get closer to your customer’s needs and pain points to help you identify defects earlier in the process which is less expensive than defects found later in the process.

We also hear Bruce’s perspective on trends in the industry and a few of his favorite books he recently read. We also learn about Bruce’s Project Management Insights monthly list of updates and insights within our industry.

RHINO NATION David Hash with Continuum Consulting and Kendall Jones with Local First Arizona

Continuum Consulting was founded in 1997 by high-end IT specialists working for contract companies. There was a need and opportunity to improve IT specialist and contractor relationships. Continuum was founded on the principles of delivering high quality service and products to ensure a successful experience for both the clients and contractors.  As an Arizona IT recruiter and software producer, our client base includes national corporations and local small businesses. With our integrity, professional attitude and commitment to service, we sustain happy clients and employees.

DavidHashwithContinuumConsultingonPhoenixBusinessRadioXIt’s often said that entrepreneurs are born and not made, and that certainly holds true for David Hash. Starting when he was a teenager, David has been a visionary, creating customized solutions for businesses to improve efficiencies and increase revenue opportunities. Across his career, he has spearheaded three business ventures covering a range of expertise areas including manufacturing, project management, product development, e-commerce, and staffing and recruiting. His longest-running success story is Continuum Consulting, whose staffing specialists adeptly match IT and finance professionals with leading companies to build win-win relationships.

A true leader, David is not one to be tied down by conventions – or even a desk. He is often spotted across the Valley at networking events, constantly creating new partnerships and alliances to advance his business development efforts. When he assumed presidency of Continuum Consulting in 2005, moving from his position as board member and owner, he began to inject his energy and management style into the company. By forecasting the upcoming shift in economic conditions, David was able to craft a strategic plan to weather the storm and emerge even more successful on the other side. Keenly aware of his strengths and limitations, David surrounds himself with a talented team that is able to interpret, support, and execute his initiatives. If there isn’t a picture in the dictionary next to the definition of entrepreneur, there should be – of David Hash.

At the heart of Dataforensics software is a substantially less human dependent data collection model, founded on the precept that data should only be input once and that integrated systems can subsequently enhance usability and reliability of data while improving the data management process. Clients routinely tell Dataforensics that their software results in a positive return on investment within a few months of deployment.

Geoff Smith/Assurance Financial Group

Assurance Financial is a bank focusing only on residential home loans and aims to be the expert in the field of financing for home purchases. The company is consistently named a “Best Place To Work” and strives to provide its customers with competitive interest rates and the best customer service.

 

John Herbert/Herbert Legal Group

From the smallest start-up to the industry giant, legal solutions are no longer a luxury. Whether it’s one incident that requires intense legal representation, or simply issues that arise naturally in the day-to-day business context, companies need a law firm that is on their side. Herbert Legal Group believes that valuable legal solutions can be delivered for businesses at an affordable, flat fee. They are off the clock and on your side.

Scott Tanksley/Authentity

Authentity provides a software tool that leads people through a face-to-face conversation in 30 minutes or less. Rather than answering a computer, they catalyze people talking to people, which raises the engagement level of the participants and generates understanding and buy-in. That’s a local win, but they’re also able to connect and report these conversations at scale to give leaders insight on a topic and faster, more actionable data from their stakeholders. Their initial users have been teams in large companies, and they’ve been affectionately called “Undercover Boss in a Box”.
