Day 1 at FIATECH, and I thought the most interesting session was by Barry LePatner, who focused on “How to fix America’s broken construction industry.” As you can tell, LePatner argues that Construction is uniquely broken among U.S. industries, and is essentially continuing to do business the same way and with the same technology as 100 years ago. Here are...
Just a brief mention... The Construction Financial Management Association is holding their annual get together this year on May 17 in Orlando, and ColumbiaSoft will be there... exhibiting in booth #518. If you can't make it to this year's show, you can always check out our virtual CFMA trade show page.
Like every good (and bad) revolution before it, the Email revolution is fading. Not that we won't be using email anymore... just the opposite. Email has become so routine and essential to our daily lives and business that it is no longer revolutionary. It's ordinary. Just a decade ago, when I wanted to send a written message I typed away in...
A quick trip over to our engineering group today (the smart side of the office) gave me a heads-up on a neat new technology being worked on for an upcoming Document Locator release. It's not fully baked yet - it doesn't even have a name... so there's no chance of getting more details from our crew...
I was at a conference the other day and ran into a dutiful young lady (I’ll call her “Jill”) who, at the direction of her well-intentioned boss, had taken the initiative to make her office “paperless”. She scanned every piece of paper from every file cabinet, and voila… nobody could find a single document they were...

Another of our customers has successfully used Document Locator to power document management within an intranet environment... we issued a release on how HITT Contracting Gets Organized just the other day. Actually, much of the credit goes to our partner The Cram Group for getting
Ok... This isn’t the usual place for bragging, so forgive me for just a moment to announce that we have been named in the list of Top 100 Collection Technology Products by Collection Advisor Magazine. I’ll stop here and let you choose if you want to continue reading the
It's officially out there - our latest release of Document Locator raises the bar more than a little with new integration technologies. I'll leave the details to those who want to read more about Document Locator v5.1, but in short - it's now possible to connect document...
The brain trust here at ColumbiaSoft has done it again. Officially, we can't announce anything yet (it has to wait for our next version of document management software to be released), but what I just saw in an insiders' demo will certainly be a big hit with anyone who has...
