Exclusive Discounts on LandDev™
All attendees receive a 10% discount off LandDev™ – the technology products and services that have been developed specifically to automate the implementation of the Developing for Profit best practices. This revolutionary land development software helps land developers manage the process of building lots and developing land for commercial or residential land development uses. LandDev supports and automates ‘Best Practices’. Working with Excel, Outlook and Project developers can build budgets, get and compare competitive bids, manage contracts, and manage the invoicing process. A variance management system allows for tight management by exception controls. Developers can deliver lots faster and significantly improve their bottom line. LandDev is built on top of Microsoft SQL Server and uses the familiar Microsoft applications of Excel (Spreadsheet) Outlook (Email) and Project (Scheduling). Most land developers are already using one or more of these applications. Excel in particular is very popular for budget management and for bid control and comparisons. Scheduling is important for land development projects. LandDev uses the Microsoft Project scheduling program and improves upon it's functionality. Outlook is used to send email to notify managers of important events, such as a change order from the field. Also, bid request, purchase orders, back charge notifications, and payment information is sent to contractors through the email system (as Excel spreadsheets). Read Others’ Experiences with LandDev™ "Having been given an opportunity to preview the LandDev product in depth we are extremely excited to see this product come to market. Our team feels that a well-thought-out product has been missing for some time in the “big picture” of builder/developer software. This will finally support all facets of the land development enterprise. In fact, we think it has huge possibilities in the high rise, infill, multi-family and rehab facets of the industry." Pat Sargent, PresidentSargent Consulting, Inc. “Since we entered building projects into the LandDevTM system, we have the ability to build on schedule and on budget. Field superintendents have accurate information on subs and immediately evaluate variances on any project. The reporting features are easy to use and allow us to determine progress on any job real-time. This offers tremendous advantage and we build more homes than ever before.” Richard Henderson, Project EngineerArbor Homes “LandDev makes it easier to stay on top of budgets and schedules. I don’t need an elaborate reporting system to tell me what’s going smoothly. I need to know when things are off track – and fast. That requires close control and accurate updates. LandDev gives us those.” Gary Crump, EVP Falling Water
