Fletcher Building Standardises on Aconex Ltd (ASX:ACX) for All Projects

Aconex Limited (ASX:ACX), provider of the #1 platform connecting teams on the world's largest construction and engineering projects, today announced a three-year enterprise agreement with Fletcher Building Limited (NZE:FBU) (ASX:FBU), one of the largest tier-one main contractors in New Zealand. Under the agreement, Fletcher will standardise on Aconex solutions across all construction business divisions, which includes Fletcher Building and Interiors, Fletcher Construction, Fletcher Infrastructure, and Fletcher Living. Aconex will also be the preferred solution for Fletcher South Pacific and Higgins Contracting.

The enterprise-wide engagement with Fletcher Building expands a prior agreement between Aconex and Fletcher Construction for all of that division's building projects. One of the better known Fletcher projects supported by Aconex was the US$1.9-billion Canterbury Earthquake Recovery programme, which involved the repair of more than 180,000 properties damaged in the 2010 disaster - http://www.aconex.com/projects/canterbury-earthquake-recovery.

Under the new agreement, Aconex will also help Fletcher Infrastructure manage project information and processes for government and infrastructure developments.

"We have helped Fletcher Construction deliver a number of commercial and residential projects over the last several years, and our enterprise agreement with the parent company builds on this successful partnership," said Leigh Jasper, Aconex CEO. "We now look forward to working with all divisions of Fletcher Building to continue strengthening their position as a leading force in the New Zealand construction market."
