What We Do

We’re transforming the way the world is built.

Construction happens all around us, building and reinforcing the conveniences of modern life. But ironically, the industry is plagued by technology setbacks that cause inefficient and sometimes unsafe work. Our goal is to put the right tools in the hands of construction workers, in both the office and field, to help them build the world smarter, faster, and safely.

Heavy construction software is our specialty.

Our main focus is on infrastructure, heavy/highway, and utility contractors. That means our customers build the roads, bridges, dams, airports, and other structures that we all rely on. We’ve been devoted to this underserved market since 1986, and we’ve come a long way from a DOS program to a robust suite of products today that run on desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Our Mission:

We help customers achieve excellence through our proven, customer-centric, end-to-end solutions and exceptionally helpful service, while providing a great life for our employees.

Our Vision:

HCSS powers the transformation of the construction industry to build safer, more modern communities.

Behaviors that Support our Values

Be someone people trust.

Speak honestly and be authentic. Follow through on what you say. Model integrity in all your interactions.

Leave things better than you found them.

Reliably deliver results and be a team player. See problems through to resolution. Make the job of the person who comes after you easier.

Genuinely care for the people you interact with.

Listen empathetically and show respect for others. Care about their success and be for them. Think of what’s best for the whole, not just yourself.

Be curious and proactive.

Take initiative and ask questions about why things are the way they are. Seek opportunities to improve, take accountability, and deliver with urgency.

Cultivate a growth mindset.

Be vulnerable: it’s okay to say “I don’t know.” Seek feedback and be open to change. Learn from your mistakes. Empower others with your knowledge.

Be exceptionally helpful without exception.

Whether customers, employees, or anyone we interact with, look for ways to serve. Be passionate about helping others solve problems & achieve success.

Impact the community positively.

Be well-rounded and involved in life outside of work. Represent HCSS and yourself well. Be a positive force in professional and personal communities.

This is a people-first company.

We take care of our customers.

We’re a tech company, but we’re focused on the human element. Our software is designed to help people do their jobs better, and our support is available 24/7 to ensure they can do exactly that. Just ask any customer about HCSS, and amazing service will be one of their top mentions.

We support the people of construction.

We’re on a mission to reframe the conversation around construction. So we started I Build America, a movement to generate pride and respect for those who build our great nation. For the next generation of builders we provide free HCSS software for higher learning.

We give back to the community.

Sugar Land is our home, where we sponsor local events, support charitable causes, and provide quality employment in a growing business. Our civic contributions during Hurricane Harvey even won an ARTBA Helping Hand Award.

We treat employees like family.

Providing a great life for employees is part of our mission statement, and we don’t take it lightly. Our generous benefits and steady commitment to employee health and happiness have earned us a best workplace title every year since 2007.
