How One Software CEO is Combining Accountability and Software to Change the Future of Construction
AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / January 25, 2022
It’s the one announcement that no school district superintendent or campus principal ever wants to make:
“We regret that due to unforeseen construction delays, your child will not begin the school year in a new, state-of-the-art school as planned…”
“The problem,” says Steve Harper, CEO of Austin-based Owner Insite, “is that owners trust their contractors to give them an accurate assessment of their project’s status. But if they’re not getting reliable information . . . well, it’s garbage-in, garbage-out at that point.”
Read more of Steve’s profile in Business Insider and learn why he’s passionate about empowering owners to hold their construction teams accountable for results . . . and how his company’s software can be a game-changer for school districts, hospitals, universities, municipal governments, and commercial real estate developers.

That’s a lot of moving parts to keep track of when you’re looking at building 14 new campuses. I’m not saying it was the worst way to do it, but making the ongoing changes, keeping up with the accuracy of edits and new information, and only having limited access was challenging.”
