What Hagen Business Systems does

Hagen Business Systems is a privately-held construction technology value-added reseller (VAR) and consulting firm headquartered in the Phoenix/Scottsdale, Arizona metropolitan area, operating with a staff of 1–10 employees. The company resells, implements, trains, and supports a curated portfolio of third-party construction software anchored by Bluebeam Revu—its flagship PDF markup and collaboration platform offered in Standard, CAD, and eXtreme editions—and complemented by Viewpoint Vista construction ERP, Elecosoft Powerproject CPM scheduling, mJobTime mobile field time collection (with fingerprint + iPad to eliminate buddy punching), GCpay construction payment management, PlansLive plan set management, QuickBooks integration services, ABBYY-based document imaging and OCR, and KnowBe4 security awareness training.

The firm sells through direct phone outreach (480-705-4241), website contact forms, and on-site consulting engagements across the Arizona market. Training is delivered both 'Over the Web' and 'At Your Facilities' by certified instructors, with a Construction Tech Blog of 41+ pages serving as a content marketing and thought leadership channel. Owner Carol Hagen is the primary public-facing figure, actively participating in CFMA, NAWIC, ASA, and ASPE Arizona chapters and speaking at Bluebeam XCON.

Revenue is generated through three streams: software license resale and subscription renewals, training services delivered remotely and on-site, and professional technology consulting. Pricing is quote-based across all offerings, with annual billing on software subscriptions. The customer base consists primarily of general contractors, subcontractors, and construction accounting and project management functions within Arizona-based SMB construction firms; no enterprise anchor customers are publicly disclosed.

Direct peers

• Microsol Resources: Construction technology VAR specializing in Autodesk, Bluebeam, and BIM solutions for AEC firms. Closely comparable business model to HBS — software resale, training, and consulting for construction clients.
• Applied Software (IMAGINiT): Construction and manufacturing technology VAR reselling Autodesk and Bluebeam with consulting and training services. Highly comparable operating model — VAR-led construction technology services for AEC firms.
• US CAD: Construction and infrastructure technology VAR and Bluebeam reseller. Directly comparable: AEC software resale, training, and consulting; mentioned as a content contributor alongside HBS in the Construction Tech Blog.
• KETIV Technologies: CAD/CAM and construction technology VAR with Bluebeam and Autodesk reselling plus training and consulting services. Comparable AEC-focused software reseller and services business.
• Avontus Software: Construction software vendor focused on scaffolding and access solutions; operates in adjacent construction software vertical with similar small-to-mid construction firm customer base.
• IMAGINiT Technologies: Large North American construction and manufacturing technology VAR reselling Autodesk, Bluebeam, and similar AEC software. Most comparable direct peer given overlapping Bluebeam/construction tech resale and consulting model, though significantly larger in scale.

Emerging players

• Foundation Software: Construction accounting software vendor serving small-to-mid contractors. Competes with the Viewpoint/QuickBooks portion of HBS's portfolio for the same accounting-and-payroll buyer.
• CMiC: Construction ERP vendor covering accounting, project management, and field operations for general contractors. Competes with Viewpoint Vista in HBS's accounting/ERP portfolio.

Broad incumbents

• Procore: Largest construction management platform covering project management, financials, and field operations. Competes indirectly with HBS's PlansLive/Viewpoint integrations and represents the channel-disintermediation threat to the VAR model.
• Trimble Viewpoint: Construction ERP and project management software vendor whose Vista product HBS resells. Direct upstream partner and potential bypass risk as Trimble scales direct enterprise sales.
