What Easybuild does

Easybuild was a UK construction-management software company founded in 1999 and headquartered in Borehamwood, with 11-50 employees. The business has been migrated into The Access Group's Access Construction platform, effectively operating today as the Construction division of The Access Group, a privately held UK software company founded in 1984 with over 40 years of accumulated construction-sector software expertise.

Access Construction delivers an integrated, AI-native software suite purpose-built for UK contractors and homebuilders, marketed as the successor platform to Easybuild. The core product triad comprises Access Coins Evo (a construction ERP covering financials, project control, procurement, HR and payroll, with automated Cost Value Reconciliation), Access Fonn (a mobile-first site project management tool for RFIs, daily logs, health and safety), and Access ConQuest (digital take-off and estimating software feeding winning bids directly into live project budgets). The platform runs on Microsoft Azure AI infrastructure under a Featured Microsoft Partner relationship, augmented by Access Evo AI capabilities (predictive monitoring, plain-language CVR Copilot, proactive alerts) and is delivered with ISO 42001 AI governance and SOC 2 / ISO 27001 security certifications.

Revenue is generated through annual software licence subscriptions sold via an enterprise field-sales motion in the UK and Ireland (with reference customers across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia and the United States). Named customers include 43 of the UK's top 75 homebuilders (e.g., Barratt Developments, Vistry Group, Campion Homes) and tier-one contractors such as Wates Construction, Keltbray, Trant, Robertson, Wynne and Stepnell. Segment focus is primarily main contractors and UK homebuilders, with secondary verticals in civil engineering, electrical, mechanical and commercial fit-out contractors; pricing is quote-based with a Premier Customer Success Plan tier available at additional cost, and 1,000+ companies and 130,000+ construction professionals run on Access platforms.

Core offering

Easybuild (now operating as Access Construction under The Access Group) sells purpose-built construction management software to UK & Ireland contractors and homebuilders. Its offering combines an ERP platform (Access Coins Evo) for financials, project control, procurement, HR and payroll with a mobile-first project management product (Access Fonn) and an estimating solution (Access ConQuest), delivered as integrated annual subscriptions on an AI-native Azure platform.

Product overview

Access Construction is an AI-native construction software platform offered by The Access Group, comprising three integrated core products: Access Coins Evo (construction ERP platform for financials, project control, procurement, HR and payroll), Access Fonn (mobile-first project management for site teams), and Access ConQuest (construction estimating software). These products can be purchased independently but deliver greater value together, with site activity from Fonn flowing directly into CVR and job costing in Coins Evo, and winning estimates from ConQuest converting to project budgets with zero rekeying.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Direct peers

• RIB Software: Construction ERP and estimating software (iTWO) for contractors globally. Comparable vertical SaaS model with 5D BIM-enabled estimating, target overlap in commercial contractors, and growing UK / European presence post-Schneider Electric acquisition.
• Procore Technologies: Leading global construction management platform covering project management, financials, and field operations. Directly comparable as a vertical SaaS for contractors and owners, with overlapping ERP-adjacent functionality and an enterprise sales motion targeting large contractors.
• Viewpoint (Trimble): Construction ERP suite (Spectrum, Vista) serving mid-to-large contractors with financials, project management, and field operations. Closely comparable product scope (ERP-centric, contractor-focused) and overlapping customer profile in commercial construction.
• Causeway Technologies: UK-based construction software provider with strong penetration across UK contractors and homebuilders in estimating, project management, and supply chain. Most direct geographic and product competitor in the UK&I construction ERP market.

Broad incumbents

• Sage Group: UK-headquartered accounting and ERP software incumbent with construction-specific offerings (Sage Intacct Construction, Sage 200). Comparable as a UK-based financial/ERP suite for SMEs, though broader in scope and not specialized to construction workflows.
• Autodesk Construction Cloud: Suite combining BIM, project management, and construction operations from Autodesk (Build, BIM 360, PlanGrid). Comparable as a vertically-integrated construction platform with strong design-to-field workflow; competes increasingly on the ERP/financials layer.
• Oracle Primavera / Aconex: Oracle's construction and engineering portfolio covering project scheduling (P6), project controls, and document management (Aconex). Comparable for large-project and capital-project contractors, though weighted toward civil engineering and infrastructure rather than homebuilding.
• Microsoft Dynamics 365 Project Operations: Microsoft's project-based ERP and PSA offering, used by some construction firms for financials and project accounting. Comparable as a platform-level ERP that competes for the same customer wallet; relevant given Access Construction's Azure-native foundation and Microsoft co-sell relationship.

Emerging players

• Foundation Software: US-based construction ERP (Foundation, Dexter + Chaney) for general and specialty contractors. Comparable construction-specific ERP feature set (job costing, payroll, project management) and SMB/enterprise contractor customer profile.
• Buildertrend: Construction project management and customer relationship software focused primarily on residential remodelers and custom homebuilders. Comparable homebuilder-centric vertical SaaS, though smaller in scale and more US-centric than Easybuild/Access Construction.
