    Under the partnership agreement, ABC members will have access to Maxwell's team of technology and implementation best-practice experts. Maxwell will deliver a knowledgebase, technology stewardship, and methods to bring a greater understanding of software utilization and process improvement for effective business leadership. For example, in addition to white papers, Maxwell will offer several educational webinars using its Best Practices Guide series.

"In all things, we focus on 'Empowering Construction,' and this partnership with ABC is another valuable extension of that driving force. Our organizations share a commitment to helping construction businesses win more work, gain competitive advantages, and leverage opportunities for best success," Flynn says.

    "This partnership with Maxwell Systems gives ABC members access to a trusted industry source that can provide insights into how to use the latest construction software solutions and technology to more efficiently and effectively manage their businesses," adds ABC President and CEO Michael Bellaman. "We're excited to have Maxwell Systems create a dialogue with our members and help them improve their productivity, as well as profitability."

    The webinar series is designed to deliver best practices to help construction business leaders leverage advancements in technology, streamline and standardize management processes, and drive organizational change for best success. The first webinar will be hosted in September, with others following in November, February, and April.
