The ConstructionOnline team joined construction professionals from across the Midwest and beyond at the 2026 Chicago Build Expo, held October 28–29 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois.
Recognized as one of the region’s leading construction and design events, Chicago Build brought together contractors, architects, engineers, developers, and industry leaders for two days of networking, education, and the latest products and technologies shaping the industry. As previously announced, ConstructionOnline exhibited at this year’s show.
High-Quality Connections with Construction Professionals
The ConstructionOnline booth stayed busy throughout both days of the expo, with many construction professionals stopping by—eager to explore how an all-in-one project management platform could help them manage their businesses more effectively. The team connected with contractors and builders across a wide range of project types, business sizes, and specialties, and many of those conversations sparked promising opportunities.
With tools for estimating, scheduling, financial management, project tracking, and communication, ConstructionOnline helps contractors centralize project information, streamline daily operations, and gain greater visibility across their businesses. Chicago Build gave the team the chance to walk attendees through those capabilities face to face.
AI Takes Center Stage
One theme stood out: many visitors opened with questions about AI. Attendees wanted to know how artificial intelligence can practically support their teams and where ConstructionOnline is investing in AI-powered capabilities.
