By David Sims

CMiC, a vendor of software products for the architectural, engineering and construction industry, landed in the top spots in two recent industry surveys, beating out industrial competitors Meridian, Sage and JD Edwards.


CMiC won first place in the imaging and workflow product category and first place in the CRM product category. CMiC ranked second in collaboration software for general contractors and also placed second in accounting software.

The CFMA's 2008 Technology Survey, is a continuous sampling of IT patterns in the construction industry, also found that CMiC provides the number one CRM product for General Contractors with over $250 million in revenue, winning over SageCRM and Oracle (News - Alert) E-Business Suite.

The survey ranked CMiC second in accounting software for General Contractors $101 million and above and second in project collaboration software for General Contractors in the same revenue range.

CMiC also jumped up four spots in the Project Management category from the CFMA's 2006 Technology Survey, a significant increase "that demonstrates that the industry is seeing the advantages in efficiency and productivity by integrating financials and project management," said Bassem Hamdy, vice president of Solutions at CMiC.

In a study conducted by McGraw-Hill, the publishers of ENR and The Top 400 Contractor's List, CMiC took the top spot in the Imaging and Workflow category across all sub-categories. CMiC also scored highly in the Performance section, especially in security, scalability and reputation.

Earlier this month Sage Software (News - Alert) announced the opening of its new facility in British Columbia to house the Canadian operations and global development teams for its Sage Accpac ERP and Simply Accounting by Sage product lines.

"Sage has a long history in Canada with our Accpac and Simply Accounting lines," said Laurie Schultz, Sage Software general manager for Sage Accpac and Simply Accounting by Sage.
