Gordon Ashworth, one-time CEO of UK-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) collaboration vendor Asite and now a non-executive director, has taken advantage of the company’s low share-price (down to an all-time low of 1.25p recently) to bag a further 156,250 shares at an average price of 1.41 pence. According to today’s London Stock Exchange announcement, he now holds …

Steady StoreData?
The latest financial results from Styles & Wood‘s StoreData collaboration technology division are now combined with the group’s StorePlanning division, which makes comparisons with the previous figures (see StoreData stagnating in 2007) more difficult. In 2007, the StorePlanning division achieved revenues (£6.1m) four times greater than StoreData (£1.5m), and returned a profit of £1m compared …

28 August 2008
I try to keep abreast of some of the US products that provide online construction collaboration capabilities, and have just been contacted by California-based Corecon‘s Norman Wendl. I was aware of Corecon having read about its web-based estimating, project management, cost control and business development tools back in 2005. With the launch of Corecon 2007 …
