Align Unveils Software Updates

New software enhancements make the construction industry’s most comprehensive operations management software even more powerful.

DENVER (September 8, 2020) ― Align Technologies (formerly ToolWatch), a powerful, flexible platform for tool, equipment, materials and consumables management, announced two major updates to its enterprise‐wide software, extending the already robust reporting and receiving features. These updates will allow businesses to further streamline internal processes, increase productivity on the job site and back office, and minimize unnecessary costs, all goals enhanced in the age of COVID‑19.

“Align is constantly innovating to meet the needs of our customers,” said Don Kafka, CEO of Align. “With updates like these, internal operations are optimized to improve efficiency and accuracy and in turn, profitability increases as well.”

Align users currently have advanced reporting capabilities, and now users can build and schedule customized reports using their Align data. From tool utilization, equipment transfers, to job costs and billing, Align Technologies users can manage and create reports to meet their own specific needs. With real‐time data available to decision‐makers in whatever format they prefer, automatically, organizations gain full visibility into a project and strategically forecast with more accuracy.

“A well‐connected business is a profitable business,” says Don Kafka, CEO of Align. “In order to manage the complex and time‐consuming details involved in construction projects, automating and customizing the reporting process helps businesses save valuable time and gain insight into internal processes and operations.”

Expanding Align’s receiving process to iOS and Android mobile devices allows field team management to notify accounting departments with the receipt of items delivered to the job site instantly. The receiving process is streamlined even further and by eliminating unnecessary steps, office teams can pay vendor invoices immediately and start billing clients directly.

Align is currently in the final phase of beta testing these enhancements among select Align users, and the new features will be implemented to all Align users in fall 2020. To learn more, visit aligntech.co.
