Architecture and furniture design firm serving Central America and Colombia
Arista is a regional architecture and interior-design firm founded in 1986, operating across six countries (Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia) with 201–500 employees. The tech stack reflects a traditional AEC (architecture, engineering, construction) profile—AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp for design; Dynamics NAV for ERP; Power BI for analytics—with enterprise security (Fortinet, IAM, Qradar) layered on top. Hiring is accelerating with a sales-led push (8 open sales roles vs. 3 design roles), suggesting geographic expansion or a shift toward project capture; simultaneously, construction and ops headcount growth signals scaling of delivery capacity across multiple jurisdictions.
Arista designs, supplies, and installs furniture, seating, and architectural elements for corporate and institutional clients across Central America and Colombia. The business spans full-service interior construction and office remodeling projects, supported by in-house design capability (SketchUp, Revit, AutoCAD). Operations are geographically distributed, creating compliance, supplier-quality, and logistics complexity; the company is actively structuring new regional entities and standardizing contracts to manage multi-country legal and procurement overhead. Core pain points center on project delivery predictability—meeting deadlines and budgets while maintaining product availability and supplier continuity—and ensuring full traceability of materials and labor across dispersed sites.
Arista's design stack includes AutoCAD, Revit, and SketchUp for 3D modeling and drafting. BIM (Building Information Modeling) is also in use, indicating parametric coordination on larger remodeling and construction projects.
Arista operates and hires across six countries: Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia, reflecting a regional Central American and Colombian footprint established since 1986.
