FORGED IN A

FABRICATION

Shop.

Our team is made up of leaders from fabrication floors. We've been involved with building everything from massive projects in major US metros to some of the most remote places in the world.

We supporting cutting-edge teams building the future by applying manufacturing principles to tricky construction problems.

WE ARE

Builders first

Much of our team hails from construction and manufacturing. Building Swell is purpose-built for fabricators, by a team that’s been there.

BUILDERS

People who've spent time on real shop floors, running schedules and working with shop teams.

ENGINEERS

People who've shipped tools that construction and manufacturing teams rely on every day.

TECH EXPERTS

Technology leads who've made battle-tested software for the people who rely on it.

WHY WE CARE

SIMPLE QUestions

CHALLENGING ANSWERS.

When we were on fabrication teams, we kept trying to answer questions that sound basic and very much aren’t.

THE QUESTIONS WE KEPT ASKING

01HOW MANY UNITS COULD WE PRODUCE?
02HOW MANY DO WE ACTUALLY FABRICATE?
03HOW CAN WE INCREASE THAT?
04WHAT ARE THE BEST LEVERS TO PULL?

Sounds basic. It isn't. Smart people, good data, and the answers keep slipping out of reach.

In manufacturing, you can plan around variable labor and variable material. But in prefab, the product itself is variable. Late-stage design revisions cascade all the way through production. One change at the top, and your build rates take a hit you can't see coming.

Simulation software gets you closer. It doesn't fix the underlying issue. Spreadsheets don't either. Neither do the half-dozen manufacturing tools you can buy off the shelf. None of them fit a shop where the product keeps changing.


That's why Building Swell exists. The schedule isn't a shop floor tool. It runs from first drawing to last delivery, touching every team it takes to get the job done.

Construction isn't a

Single-player game.

OUR MISSION

BUILDING A

BETTER FUTURE.

We’re out to support teams that radically change the way buildings are built. We build technology that helps teams learn faster, build faster, and react quickly to changes, so you can see around corners and build better.
