Better tools. Sharper forecasts.
A forecast is only as good as the data behind it. We look for software and data partners whose tools help owners see schedule slip, cost growth and risk sooner, and whose teams tell us the truth about what the product can and cannot do.
Tools that protect the forecast.

Technical support during rollout and through the life of the program, long after the sales demo ends.
From registration to licensing.
Our technology team keeps one partner list for every engagement. Register once and our controls leads can find you.
Send the registration form below with your product categories, integrations and the contacts who handle licensing.
Our technology team reviews your registration and may ask for documentation, a sandbox account or security information.
When an engagement needs what you offer, we test the tool against a redacted live schedule or cost file, not a demo dataset.
License terms spell out scope, users, data handling and support. Our controls lead coordinates rollout with you and the client.
What partners can expect from us.
The same commitments on every engagement, in every market, whatever the size of your firm.
- Terms
- Clear terms, agreed up frontLicensing, evaluation and any referral terms are agreed in writing before a tool reaches a client program. No informal promises.

- Communication
- Straight answers, earlyHonest product feedback from the analysts who use it, and a named KonradBeck technology contact for each partnership.

techlicense@konradbeck.comTechnology partner questions.
Is a technology partnership the same as joining the associate bench?
No. Software vendors and data platforms register here. If your firm also provides controls staff, scheduling or cost services, apply to the associate bench as well.
Do you license software from vendors for client programs?
Sometimes, when a program needs it and the client agrees. Licensing inquiries go to techlicense@konradbeck.com, and terms are agreed in writing for each arrangement.
Do you recommend tools to clients?
We recommend what fits the program, the owner’s systems and the data. Registration puts your product in front of our controls leads. It does not buy a recommendation.
Do you work with startups?
Yes. Early-stage tools are welcome, though they usually start with an evaluation on redacted data rather than a live client program.
How do I update our product information or contacts?
Email techlicense@konradbeck.com with the change and we will update your partner profile.
Build the tool. We will test it.
