Architectural building products manufacturer with global distribution
Construction Specialties manufactures specialized building products—louvers, wall protection, entrance flooring, expansion joints, sun controls—for architects, contractors, and facility managers. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-operations-focused business: Oracle SQL, EDI, IoT Edge, OPC UA, and ServiceNow anchor supply chain and plant floor operations, while Salesforce manages sales engagement. Active hiring across manufacturing (18 roles), sales (14), and engineering (11) combined with projects around S&OP implementation, OTM/GTM cloud integration with Dynamics 365, and specification automation in Salesforce suggests CS is scaling order-to-cash efficiency and specification-driven sales in architecture and design markets.
