HOVER, a technology company that transforms smartphone photos or blueprints or any property into a digital twin with 3D data, announced a renewed partnership with SRS Distribution. The partnership allows contractors to place material orders directly from within the HOVER platform, saving time and ensuring material quantities are based on accurate measurements.
The Direct Ordering tool uses measurements created from HOVER’s 3D model to calculate material quantities and instantly prepares material lists for roofing and siding products, allowing contractors to place their orders with SRS via the company’s Roof Hub tool. The Direct Ordering integration between the two companies takes into account a contractor’s unique pricing and installation preferences and offers a single, integrated digital experience that eliminates the need for manual entry or separate ordering, according to HOVER.
“The adoption of digital technology with the building industry is accelerating rapidly, so we are excited to announce the renewal of our partnership with HOVER, Kent Gardner, chief revenue and marketing officer for SRS, said in a news release. “Collectively, we are committed to working together to ensure added value in the digital space for both our current and future customers.”
The companies said the partnership will help exterior contractors who are facing the pressures of pandemic-induced supply chain delays, homeowner demand, an industry focus on reduced construction waster, and the need for cost-saving efficiencies.
“We’re thrilled to expand our continued partnership with SRS and offer Direct Ordering to their network of independent contractors,” A.J. Altman, founder and CEO of Hover, said. “The integration between HOVER and SRS’s Roof Hub is an exciting step towards driving efficiency for the built world.”
