MySmartPlans Receives 25 Under 25 Award by Thinking Bigger Business Media, Inc.

March 5, 2012 - PRLog -- Kansas City, MO; March 5, 2012---MySmartPlans is a proud to announce they are a recipient of the 2012 Annual 25 Under 25 Award from Thinking Bigger Business Media, Inc.

“We are so very proud to be selected as a recipient of this very honorable award,” said Shelley Armato, President of MySmartPlans. “My husband Dominick and I are life-long entrepreneurs and small business owners in the Kansas City area.”

The 25 Under 25 program was created to recognize 25 outstanding Kansas City area companies with fewer than 25 employees each year. Selected companies demonstrate consistent growth, commitment to the community and an ability to overcome challenges.
A black-tie dinner and gala was held Saturday evening at the Downtown Marriott, Muehlebach Tower. The evening extravaganza featured a cocktail reception, Wall of Fame, sit-down dinner, awards ceremony, live band and dancing.

Five years ago, the couple bought used reprographic equipment from a company leaving the area and, with little to no knowledge on how to operate the equipment, began printing blueprints and project plans for local construction companies. As they became more familiar with the construction industry, the Armato’s recognized that contractors and architects needed a way to organize and store the hundreds of documents on a project. They then set about developing a signature software solution, MySmartPlans, a robust and secure project management system to organize all current project information and maintain a digital archive of the project history, from preconstruction to closeout. MySmartPlans is now used by leading firms such as JE Dunn and HOK to manage more than $4 billion in construction projects throughout the United States.

MySmartPlans is a project-centric dashboard service that organizes and distributes construction documents. It eliminates time and paper wasted by shipping documents and provides contractor accountability and instant updates to ensure that everyone involved with the project has the most current information.
