Two months from now we'll be in Nashville for the SAIA Annual Convention & Exposition - and we're hosting a panel we've been looking forward to for a while.

Industry Round Table:
Lessons Learned & Real Talk From Company Leaders
📅 July 28 | JW Marriott Nashville | 9-10AM

Join us along with David Johnson of SkyLine Scaffold, Dean Courser of PCG, and Micah Turner of the Trekker Group - three savvy leaders with decades of real operational experience as we sit down to talk candidly about the lessons that took the longest to learn, the bottlenecks that impact their bottom line, and how technology has changed running an office and managing field ops.

No slides. Just the hard-won perspective it takes years to earn.

Find us at Booth 104 after.

Ever needed to know exactly what changed in an invoice or estimate and when? Now you can.

📊 Get full visibility into your invoicing and estimating process - available in Quantify Enterprise and Industrial.

We’ve released Invoice History Tracking: features that log every change made to invoices and estimates over time, including changes made through the REST API.

This is a big win for finance and compliance teams who can see exactly what changed and when.

Estimating and Sales teams also have history tracking for estimates. Changes are logged and reviewable - a complete audit trail from first bid to final approval.

You’ll also find customizable estimate statuses, be able to create professional, on-brand invoices, estimates and shipping statements in mere minutes with the End-User Report Designer, and more all in the latest release.

This one simple workflow cuts design time and eliminates redundant work. 👇

The latest Avontus Designer release gives you more control, more flexibility, and more professional output than ever before.

➜ Custom Plank Configurations: End the One-Size-Fits-All Approach
Say goodbye to compromises. Our new plank feature lets you specify the plank type and width you want for individual bays or levels. You no longer have to settle for system defaults. This feature can be particularly helpful for complex layouts like stairway turnarounds and landings or when you want to use specific parts. Designer's intelligent layout algorithm defaults to widest-plank-first, but now you're in full control.

➜ Toeboard Text: Brand Your Designs, Protect Your Work
Add your company name or custom text on toeboards and watch your designs come to life with professional polish. Use the text and color you wish, then export with confidence to Avontus Viewer, 3D PDF, or DWG. Your branding stays perfectly legible at any print scale. It's the subtle touch that protects your designs and elevates client presentations.

➜ Smoother 3D Rendering: Every Detail Counts
Enhanced anti-aliasing gives your 3D models sharper, crisper details. Combined with toeboard text, your client presentations now look more professional and polished than ever.

Meet Breck Construction, one of Canada's most versatile industrial contractors, based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. COR-certified. WBE Canada-Certified.

And now, powered by ScaffoldIQ™. 💪

Before ScaffoldIQ, Breck was managing hundreds of scaffolds across remote mining sites, hydro facilities, and major industrial clients the old-fashioned way: Excel spreadsheets.

The result? Billing delays, coordination headaches, and no real-time visibility across sites.

Then came ScaffoldIQ and everything changed.

➜ 200+ scaffolds on one site - all viewable in a single app
➜ Mobile-first inspections, handovers & safety docs on iOS or Android devices
➜ Faster, more accurate billing. Billing teams now see handover dates in real-time without a single phone call to the field
➜ Client-facing visibility as a competitive differentiator
➜ Live mapping across commercial and industrial job sites

In the words of Operations Manager Dan Constantinoff:
"ScaffoldIQ has been a game changer for us and our clients. It's like a Swiss army knife, there's so much capability in there."

And our personal favorite:

"I think you guys have us for a long duration for as long as we're a scaffold company. I look forward to Avontus evolving along with us."

That's the kind of partnership we live for.

Canada's top scaffold companies are choosing Avontus and the results speak for themselves. Access Association of Canada
