CAMBRIDGE, MA — WeatherBuild®, Decision Support Solutions for the Construction Industry and Built Environment®, is proud to announce the release of WeatherBuild Mobile version 1.3 in the iTunes App Store. Weather is one of the top three reasons for missed milestones in the construction industry and built environment, with negative impacts costing billions of dollars. WeatherBuild offers a suite of decision support solutions that empower contractors, owners and operators to improve situational awareness and make better-informed decisions about weather events, schedule impacts and probable outcomes. Our mission is to leverage weather data, machine learning and predictive analytics to increase productivity, enhance safety and manage risk.

Advisory, watch and warning lightning alerts, and potential all clear and all clear notifications

WeatherBuild Mobile is an app at the point of construction and operations for team members and project stakeholders in the field and on the worksite.
