ABOUT
Rockland Holdings
Our vision is to be a custom software development and solutions provider for different industries in a collaborative manner for our targeted clients in the digital space. We want to set ourselves apart from the rest of the fray who are racing to the bottom to be the low bidder using cheap overseas labor. The standard approach is for a non-technical client to create vague requirements and solicit bids from different development shops for the low bidder. As the project development carries on the client becomes dissatisfied after realizing the costs to create, maintain, and add new features as they’re conceived. The alternative option is to look for an off the shelf product which ends up with trying to force a square peg in a round hole for their use case.
We want to flip the industry’s business model on its head by bringing in experts internally to drill down on the biggest pain points of different industries that can be helped with software. Many of our targeted clients aren’t even aware of the need they have to even begin to seek out help to become more efficient. Henry Ford famously said, “If I asked my customers what they wanted they would have asked for a faster horse.” Some have tried to create their own software but don’t have the expertise to create a product internally that is of the caliber of one with mass market appeal. Our long-term goal is to approach with an unique model to share in the cost of development by using our existing cash flow from our improved merged and acquired software development companies along with our targeted client to progressively design and build solutions while we retain majority ownership of the intellectual property. This serves a dual purpose of creating a perfect fit for the client’s company, while our company can iteratively refine and test our product to perfection before we take it to the rest of the market with the credibility of an existing customer.
Our first industry that we will focus on will be the vast construction and engineering industry which has many different categories and subcategories. The US construction market is valued at $3.3 trillion in 2024 and slated to grow by 2.1% to 2029. [3] The US e ngineering market is valued $350.9 billion [4]. Comparatively the construction US software industry is valued at $6.3 billion [5] . The engineering US software industry is valued at $9.34 billion. [6] The disparity in these numbers is indicative of a severe need that hasn’t been met yet. These antiquated industries began with slide rulers, pencil, and paper. Only in recent times have you seen the emergence of drone scanning, computer aided design, project management software, and much more. However, there is still a vast gap in the industry for labor intensive processes like estimating, plan reading, CRM, quantity tracking, CAD, and more. The solutions we will create will be the difference for these companies to remain competitive in an industry where margins are razor thin and one mistake can cost millions of dollars. Once we develop a software that becomes industry standard like AutoCAD is today, we can begin to create an ecosystem like Apple where all our additional products complement one another to lock in our customer.
