07/08/09

  MARK SYSTEMS was named as one of the country's 50 Hottest Companies in residential construction technology by Constructech magazine.
  The Constructech 50 Hottest for 2009 is a listing of the most influential construction technology providers with a strong and ongoing market presence as determined by the editors of Constructech magazine with assistance from its editorial advisory board.   Winners of the Constructech 50 Hottest are evaluated on a continued and dominant presence in the marketplace. 
  "Coupled with  garnering our Top Product Award designation for 2 years in a row, this commendation further recognizes the continuing value that MARK SYSTEMS software brings to residential builders and developers" said Mark Finelli, President of MARK SYSTEMS.  "Our commitment to product development and our exclusive focus on the home building industry has made MARK SYSTEMS' Integrated Homebuilder Management System the clear technology leader for homebuilders of any size", Finelli said.
  “The Constructech 50 Hottest honors the hard work and dedication that these exceptional companies have shown in the construction space,” said Mike Carrozzo, chief editor of Constructech. “Though economic turmoil has been prominent and the construction market has seen struggles, this year’s winners have still found success and are taking part in the move toward improvement in the industry.”
  MARK SYSTEMS has found success during the residential construction slowdown by targeting savvy builders who are positioning themselves for growth as the new home market returns, according to Scott Duman, Vice President and CTO of MARK SYSTEMS.  "Like our customers, we've taken advantage of the slower business pace to make dramatic investments in our product development", Duman said.  "Our move to a Java platform, along with a complete re-write of our entire reporting package using Jasper reports, ensures our customers stay at the very peak of technology."

  •   January is not a big month for “don’t miss” events, But it is home to one of, if not “the,” premier events of the year—the State Chamber’s annual “Walk to Washington.”
      The tradition began in 1937 when several of the state's top business executives took a train to Washington to have dinner with New Jersey's congressional delegation. The rest is history. The Walk to Washington obtained its name when participants realized that few sit on the train; they literally walk the train mingling and exchanging business cards the whole way to Washington.
