UniSteps Consulting has launched BcStep, a Business Operating Network (BON) designed to bring project information, communication, tasks and workflows onto a single digital platform for the construction industry.

The platform is aimed at connecting developers, architects, consultants, project management consultants, contractors, suppliers and internal teams. BcStep integrates enterprise resource planning (ERP), human resource management (HRM), chat, email and task management within one ecosystem.

The company said the platform is designed to reduce time spent searching across multiple systems, manual follow-ups and administrative work related to meetings, tasks and communication. It also enables activity and category-wise task tracking and provides stakeholders with visibility into project progress.

BcStep has been developed over approximately five years, covering product development, technology changes, testing, architecture and integration of its applications. The platform is being launched with a pan-India market focus.

Kailash Anwala, Managing Director, UniSteps, said the platform had been developed to address fragmentation in construction project management and bring stakeholders onto a unified digital environment.

UniSteps plans to expand BcStep with additional capabilities in site management, invoice management, contract management and material management. The company also plans to expand its artificial intelligence capabilities through its Mr Bon AI assistant.

The company said its three-year plan is to build a base of paying organisations and develop BcStep into a recurring-revenue technology platform for the construction sector.

UniSteps has more than two decades of experience in project management, structural consultancy and MEP consultancy.
