Aconex enterprise partner, Fletcher Construction, who build their projects on Aconex, has been hard at it, rebuilding the earth-quake shattered rail and road connections.
Just one of 36 new enterprise agreements signed in ANZ in FY17, the Fletcher agreement demonstrates the dynamic productivity of enterprise agreements in general. In ANZ, they are responsible for 68% of revenue, and growing.
