Help us plan Community events: Fill out your profile!

 Hello OpenSpace Community!As we continue growing, we are starting to plan out different events to get you all connected and meeting each other. We especially want to hold regional events so you can network with those near you.In order to do this, we need your help!We need to know where you all are located, so we can coordinate events around your locations.All you have to do:Please make sure COUNTRY is filled out in your Community profile. Adding CITY would also help, but at a bare minimum, we are only asking for COUNTRY. NOTE - The CITY field is actually private so only you and the OpenSpace Community Managers (who are planning the events) can see your city. Other Community members won’t have access to that information should you choose to include it.From there, our team can gather the data to see what events in what locations would make most sense   So essentially, completing the COUNTRY (and even CITY) field in your Community profile is like adding a vote for an event where you are

MAPP Construction: Building Shoulder to Shoulder to Honor Our Veterans

We’re incredibly proud to share this new video with you that features our friends at MAPP Construction and showcases a very meaningful and extremely challenging project: Phase 7 of The National WWII Museum in New Orleans, Louisiana.  Watch this brief video to go behind the scenes of the build and meet the core team that delivered one of MAPP’s most complex projects to date. You’ll hear how MAPP used OpenSpace to collaborate across a distributed team—enabling the owner, GC, architect, and trade partners to get the job done together, working shoulder to shoulder.  If you’d like to dig deeper, you can also watch this webinar to hear the team talk at greater length about the project, including how the Super saved 20-30% of his time by leveraging the BIM model on-site.Shout out to our community members @Clayton Samson, @Tyler Schmitz, and @larthurwalsh from MAPP for allowing us to be part of this historic project!

Nikiya - Signing Off

Hi OpenSpace Community,This is a very bittersweet post as I share with you that I am leaving OpenSpace. I have had the most fulfilling and rewarding journey the last few years, getting to know you all and building the OpenSpace Community with you. Many of you have been along this journey with me from the start, even before we had this space to become connected with each other. I am filled with so much pride and gratitude as I reflect back on what we have accomplished together: 🛠 taking your insights and feedback and continuously improving OpenSpace to build the best products for the construction industry; 🎉 having fun with all our competitions and events, both online and in person; and most importantly, 👥 fostering meaningful personal and professional relationships with each other, truly building a community of passionate and innovative construction professionals.While I won't be at OpenSpace anymore, I will always be connected to the construction industry (I've dedicated over a dec

[RECAP] Waypoint Community Summit 6/8/23

Two weeks ago, we held our first-ever in-person Waypoint Community Summit in San Francisco and we enjoyed meeting the Community members who were able to join us! 💙 Thank you again to all our attendees for spending the whole day with us.

Community Shop

Can we get an Openspace shop within the Community where we can order the blue camera mounts and the washers that you stick to your hard hats? Currently I bother my incredible customer success manager with this task.  That probably isn't even in his job description but @Wesley DuBose hooks it up everytime!

New Changes Coming to Our OpenSpace Community! [Feb 2023]News

👋 Hello OpenSpace Community!New and exciting changes are coming for us 😀 Late last year we reached our one-year Community anniversary. We took that opportunity to reflect and assess the engagement trends up to this point to make certain we continue to focus on the optimal value the Community provides for our members.  A Product-Focused Community What we learned from our analysis is that you highly value the OpenSpace Community’s connection to Product. Our Product Ideas section is our most visited page in the Community, a majority of the discussions in the forums are centered on the products, and one of the top Community requests has always been for more product education, tutorials, and paths to certification. We appreciate your feedback and are making the Community more product-focused moving forward. Here are some changes you can expect in the next several months to reinforce what is working well in the Community: 💡 We recently updated our Product Ideas process to provide you with

The OpenSpace community is getting more and more connected and is growing at a really fast rate. I believe it would be really beneficial if we had a search bar in the leaderboards with this formatting below. It can help with searching posts from all different members by searching names.

2022 Virtual Holiday Party Recap

We had a blast with our Community at our first-ever Virtual Holiday Party yesterday! Thank you to everyone who spent it with us -- whether you were joining at the end of your workday, squeezing it in while you were on site, or sitting in a busy office. We appreciate you! For those who couldn’t be there with us (or for those who could but want to relive the festive moments), here’s a recap: 🌍 In our small gathering limited to 30 registrants, we had representation from EIGHT countries! It’s amazing how global our Community has gotten. 🎄 People really SHOWED UP for our Holiday Cheer Challenge 👏 We saw a custom Zoom background featuring the OpenSpace logo, experienced a memorable feature on haunted Christmas, heard a touching family story, celebrated career achievements, and much more! 🥇 In the end, @Michael Driscoll got the most votes for his dedication to showcasing his Holiday Spirit in the middle of his workday. I’m in an office full of people and I’m the only one dressed up… My ow
