Technology
The third leg. Running crews, jobs and holdings showed us exactly where the available tools fall short, so we build our own and prove them on our own work first.
Pillar CRM
Pillar CRM is a construction and home-services platform that runs a contracting business end to end: leads and pipeline, estimates and invoices, scheduling and crews, required job packets, customer and subcontractor portals, photos from the field, dashboards and scoreboards, and payroll and payouts. It runs on the desk and on the phone, and keeps working when the job site has no signal.
It exists because we needed it. Every feature was first a problem on one of our own jobs. We use it on every East Pillar project, and other contractors can use it too. pillarcrm.com
How we build
- Start from a real problem on a real job, not a market map.
- Run it on our own work until it is boring, then offer it to others.
- Keep the operator in charge: the software records and assists; people decide.
Why it compounds
Better tools make the construction leg more profitable. More profit buys more land. More land and more jobs mean more lessons for the next tool. The technology leg is how the whole company gets better at the same time.
