Procore Construction Network (PCN) Expands to Canada

August 2, 2024

Originally launched as a pilot in late 2021, Procore Construction Network (PCN) is a free online business directory dedicated to the construction industry, connecting general contractors, specialty contractors, owners, architects, engineers, suppliers, and vendors. In 2024, Procore expanded the network into Canada, with the rollout to English Canada currently in progress, and French Canada planned for later this year.

With Procore’s mission to connect everyone in construction on a global platform, PCN allows companies to be seen and to find other industry businesses. With a location-based search and advanced filters, customers are able to use PCN to quickly find and connect with new construction partners. This makes it easier for construction professionals to expand their online presence, promote their businesses, find others to work on their next project, and grow their networks. Within two years, PCN has surpassed its goals with more than 280,000 profiles to date with more than 1.2M unique visitors, and more than 110K bid invitations sent.

PCN is now integrated within Procore’s enhanced bidding tool. This creates one single bidding network so customers can search, prequalify and invite companies to work with all in one place. PCN is currently available in the U.S. and Canada.

“Our Canadian customers have been asking to be part of Procore Construction Network. They want to be able to promote their business on a public, searchable database, leveraging the power of Procore’s domain,” said Nolan Frazier, Regional Sales Director, Canada at Procore. “With our PCN, Canadian contractors, owners, real estate developers, architects and engineers can build new repeatable business relationships, find and connect to an ideal partner and get discovered for relevant work by others seeking a partner in the area. It can help companies focus on the right bids coming directly from our high-quality customer base. We are thrilled to expand PCN into Canada.”
