“AccuBuild Construction Software is so extensive, not one person can use every feature because there are too many to count” explains Steve Robinson, president & CEO of Rancho Pacific Electric. To some, this would be insulting. But to Mike Stearns, Sr., founder of AccuBuild, this is music to his ears.
The long-standing professional relationship between Steve Robinson and Mike Stearns, Sr. extends beyond 20 years. Both men pride themselves on creating trustworthy, ethical and customer-centric companies. “You know what you’re getting from AccuBuild – quality, integrity and service – because that’s what you get from Mike Stearns,” says Steve.
Founded in 1966 by Steve’s father, Ray Robinson, Rancho Pacific Electric has been using AccuBuild exclusively. “Before we started using AccuBuild, we were doing our bookkeeping by hand,” says Steve. “Our bookkeeper left and Mike helped us implement the software. A few months later, we were up and running with no problem.”
Today Steve is excited to start using AccuBuild’s Project Management Module and the Purchase Order Module is on his radar because his company’s need for it growing quickly. “Using AccuBuild keeps us organized and happy,” he says. “I would never work without it.”
Steve decided to take time out of his busy schedule this year to attend AccuBuild’s 2nd Annual Users’ Group Conference in Las Vegas. “I’m impressed with all of the knowledge I’ve acquired and I plan on attending next year and bringing my staff too.”

When I talk to potential customers about AccuBuild Construction Software, one of the most popular questions is “how will your Project Management Module help me?” Well, it’s not a simple answer because there are so many benefits, but I like to explain it like this - if you could save each of your Project Managers two hours a week, would you? If you have ten PMs, that would be 20 hours of time that could be spent on more productive things. Powerful stuff, right?
Every contractor knows how project management can impact profitability. Yet managing all of the complex aspects of a project is a difficult and often overwhelming task. Thanks to AccuBuild’s Project Management Module, you can take the headaches out of your day-to-day business by streamlining operations and accounting.

As I explained in my previous blog entry, Tips for Selecting Construction Software, there are many things to consider when investing in construction software. The first item I mentioned was asking the construction software provider if they use a SQL database. I’d like to elaborate on why that is so beneficial in this blog post.
AccuBuild utilizes an Advantage Database Server (ADS) which provides the power and scalability of a SQL database without the headaches of high costs and administrative downtime. This solution provides you with a bevy of benefits that ensure you will get the absolute most out of your construction software. Here is a quick list:
- Flexibility - You have the freedom to access your AccuBuild Construction Software data using native relational SQL or direct navigational database commands
- Server Stability - Innate database intelligence that protects your data from corruption, does not require a database administrator and significantly reduces related support costs
- Accounting - Corrupt files are no longer a possibility because you have the ability to perform automatic roll-backs in posting processes (AccuBuild’s code is written specifically to leverage this SQL functionality)
- Security - This includes user-based and group-based setup, with login required to protect your data against unauthorized access
- Scalability - It is easy to upgrade your AccuBuild Construction Software user counts as your company grows due to ADS (supports local, peer-to-peer and client/server environments)
There are many more benefits of using SQL, but these are some of the most important. If you are a commercial or indsutrial construction company owner seeking a smart way to streamline your business, AccuBuild Construction Software is a great place to start!
