About

InEight is an integrated construction project controls and management platform designed for large-scale infrastructure, heavy industrial, and capital construction projects, providing tools for estimating, scheduling, contract management, document control, and field execution that are calibrated to the complexity of megaprojects and capital programs. Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, and part of Kiewit Corporation, one of North America's largest construction companies, InEight was developed based on Kiewit's internal project management software and commercialized as an enterprise product for owner organizations and contractors managing complex capital programs in transportation, energy, industrial, and government construction markets.\n\nInEight's platform covers the full capital project lifecycle from initial estimating and risk-adjusted budgets through detailed scheduling, contract and change management, document control, and daily field execution tracking. The estimating module is particularly strong for heavy construction, providing benchmark-driven cost databases and risk analysis tools that support the complex, multi-year cost modeling required for infrastructure and industrial projects. Earned value management (EVM) capabilities allow project controls teams to track cost and schedule performance using industry-standard metrics.\n\nInEight competes with Oracle Primavera, Procore, Hexagon PPM, and Bentley Systems in the large project and owner's project management space. Its Kiewit heritage provides deep credibility in heavy civil and industrial construction markets, and its integration of estimating, scheduling, contract, and field execution modules in a single platform — rather than requiring separate best-of-breed tools — appeals to owner organizations and contractors who want unified data across the project lifecycle. The company has expanded internationally, serving large projects in North America, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.

About

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) is an Armonk, New York-based global technology and consulting company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: IBM) as an S&P 500 component — providing hybrid cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence software, and enterprise IT consulting through approximately 270,300 employees in 170 countries with $62.8 billion in annual revenue. Founded on June 16, 1911, as Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company through a merger orchestrated by financier Charles Ranlett Flint, renamed IBM in 1924 under Thomas Watson Sr., IBM has undergone multiple strategic transformations over its 110+ year history: building the System/360 mainframe platform (1964), launching the IBM PC (1981), selling the PC division to Lenovo (2005, $1.75B), and completing the $34 billion Red Hat acquisition (2019) that repositioned IBM as a hybrid cloud platform company. CEO Arvind Krishna (appointed April 2020) has focused IBM's strategy on three areas: hybrid cloud (powered by Red Hat OpenShift, the enterprise Kubernetes platform), AI (the watsonx platform for enterprise AI model development and deployment), and enterprise consulting. Under Krishna, IBM recorded $12.7 billion in free cash flow in 2024 (a company record), surpassed $6 billion in generative AI bookings since June 2023, and saw the stock price double — trading at all-time highs through 2024-2025. IBM announced the DataStax acquisition in 2025 to deepen watsonx's data layer with AstraDB (vector database for AI applications), DataStax Enterprise (Apache Cassandra), and Langflow (low-code AI agent development).
