Help NAHB Create Effective Business Management Tools
‘Cost of Doing Business’ Survey Submission Deadline Is May 1

Learn How Others Builders Use Software and Technology

In an effort to continually improve NAHB’s software and technology resources for members, The Business Management & Information Technology Committee is conducting a software and technology survey.

Members who participate in the survey will receive a copy of the results, which will enable them to see how other builders are using software and technology.

“We need to hear from builders about their software and technology needs,” said Steve Lewkowitz, chair of NAHB’s Business Management & Information Technology Committee IT work group. “Once we know their needs, we can create education and resources to help builders use technology to make their businesses more efficient and profitable.”

The survey runs through Tuesday, May 1. Participants will receive a copy of the results via e-mail.
