HillTop Strategy was founded on a simple insight: construction companies and industrial suppliers are sitting on goldmines of untapped data, but lack the executive technology leadership to harness it. Our fractional CIO model gives you access to world-class AI strategy, data engineering, and digital transformation expertise — at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.
Our team has worked inside some of the largest construction firms and industrial distributors in North America. We've seen firsthand how AI and machine learning can revolutionize estimating accuracy, supply chain efficiency, jobsite safety, and overall profitability.
Every engagement starts with a deep data audit and AI readiness assessment. We identify the highest-impact opportunities, build a phased technology roadmap, and execute alongside your team. No theoretical frameworks — just practical, measurable results.
Every AI model, every data pipeline, every dashboard is purpose-built for the construction and industrial supply value chain. We speak your language — RFIs, submittals, change orders, MOQs, lead times, and fill rates.
We measure everything against hard financial metrics: cost per project, bid win rate, inventory turns, labor productivity, and margin per job. If an AI initiative doesn't move your P&L, we don't recommend it.
We're not tied to any vendor. Whether the right answer is Procore, Sage, SAP, a custom Python ML model, or a simple automated spreadsheet — we recommend what delivers results.
