Hawkins\Brown Architects Choose Rapport3

"With working from home, there is a pressure to have a single source of truth. Rapport3 is great for that." Hawkins\Brown are an award-winning architectural practice who took on our Project Costing and Contacts (CRM) modules, as well as numerous integrations, last year. We caught up with them to find out how they've been using Rapport3. 

Hawkins\Brown is an internationally-renowned, award-winning practice of over 250 architects, interior designers, urban designers and researchers. Founded in 1988, they bring a wealth of experience designing and delivering innovative and socially sustainable buildings across multiple sectors. 

We welcomed Hawkins\Brown to Cubic Interactive last year, when they introduced Rapport3 modules to their award-winning architectural practice. They took on our Project Costing and Contacts (CRM) modules, as well as Access Dimensions integration, Newforma integration and OpenAsset integration. They introduced our software with the aim of refining the information available for each project and making it accessible in one central location, so that each of their talented team members could view comprehensive overviews quickly. 

They took quickly to the system, with their spokesperson, COO Alastair Brown, noting,  

"We moved a number of processes wholly into the system. Resourcing was a real headache before, but now we run all of our resourcing within Rapport3, and use the system to run reports on that. We also moved all of our QA into the system, making our lives much simpler by having everything in one place. The system has also improved our reporting greatly - we have created lots of reports already within the system, and the PowerBI integration has been great for running more timely and customised reports.”

He also noted how the software has helped with working from home, remarking, 

“With working from home, there is a pressure to have a single source of truth. Rapport3 is great for that, and enables us to keep a close eye on projects, wherever we are. We can access and understand project information much more quickly and easily.”
