Every year, the World of Concrete Conference (WOC) brings together the best minds and innovations in the concrete industry. This year, SubBase was proudly positioned in the North Hall, a space now dedicated to the rapidly growing world of construction technology. From showcasing our latest software advancements to engaging directly with users, this event was an incredible opportunity to connect with industry leaders and gather valuable feedback to drive the future of concrete management.

A game-changer for concrete procurement

One of the biggest pain points for concrete contractors is managing ready-mixed concrete orders. Traditionally, this has been a highly manual process, relying on spreadsheets, emails, and phone calls to track orders and compare actual deliveries against estimates. 

SubBase’s new module that was unveiled at WOC digitizes and centralizes this workflow, offering contractors a seamless way to manage their materials with real-time visibility and improved efficiency.

The response from attendees was overwhelmingly positive. Contractors were excited about gaining greater control over their materials and reducing operational friction. As we roll out this feature, we remain committed to refining it based on user feedback to ensure it meets the industry's evolving needs.

Strengthening client relationships and industry connections

Beyond the conference floor, WOC provided an invaluable opportunity for SubBase to interact with clients and industry peers in a more personal setting. Whether through direct conversations at our booth or more in-depth discussions at networking events, we gained valuable insights into the real-world challenges our users face. 

These interactions not only help us refine the platform but also reinforce the partnerships that drive our growth and innovation. Learning from those who are industry leaders deeply interacting with SubBase ensures that we continue developing tools that truly meet their needs.

The future of construction tech

Concrete is the backbone of modern construction, and its importance is only growing. With its strength, versatility, and increasing sustainability, the material remains a preferred choice for infrastructure and commercial developments worldwide as the global building product. 

At SubBase, our goal is to continue revolutionizing how contractors manage their businesses. Our long-term vision is to bring all aspects of material and equipment operations into a single, integrated construction procurement system. As the industry embraces digital transformation, we are leading the charge with intuitive, powerful solutions like our procurement tracking tool, material ordering software, inventory management and AP automation.

Our mission is clear: to help contractors optimize their processes, reduce waste, and improve profitability.
