Fresh Off $127M Series C and Unicorn Status, Leading Commercial Contractor Platform Establishes Second U.S. Location to Fuel Rapid Growth
RALEIGH, NC / ACCESS Newswire / June 24, 2025 / BuildOps, the all-in-one platform powering the nation’s largest commercial contractors, today announced the establishment of its East Coast headquarters in Raleigh, North Carolina. The expansion comes just months after the company achieved unicorn status with a $127 million Series C funding round, underscoring BuildOps’ explosive growth trajectory and commitment to revolutionizing how commercial contractors operate.
The new Raleigh headquarters represents BuildOps’ first East Coast location and second major U.S. hub after its Los Angeles headquarters. This move underscores the company’s continued rapid growth and commitment to supporting the commercial contracting industry nationwide. BuildOps anticipates creating more than 250 jobs in Raleigh, contributing significantly to the local economy and bolstering the city’s reputation as a thriving tech hub.
“We just hit unicorn status, and we’re not slowing down-we’re hitting the gas,” said Alok Chanani, CEO of BuildOps. “The East Coast is home to some of the biggest, most ambitious commercial contractors in the country, and they’re telling us they want BuildOps closer to home. From Boston to Miami, these contractors are transforming skylines and keeping businesses running 24/7. Now we’re bringing our A-team right to their doorstep in Raleigh. When you’re growing this fast and your customers are crushing it with your platform, you don’t play it safe. You double down, you expand, and you make sure every contractor in America knows there’s finally tech built just for them that actually works.”
BuildOps has emerged as the definitive technology partner for commercial contracting giants, with industry leaders like Haynes Mechanical, JH Kelly, and Dynamic Systems, Inc leveraging the platform to achieve remarkable efficiency gains and double-digit growth. The company’s AI-powered platform seamlessly integrates project management, service dispatching, invoicing, and predictive analytics-transforming how contractors manage everything from the shop floor to the job site.
The decision to establish an East Coast presence in Raleigh reflects BuildOps’ commitment to maintaining close relationships with its customers while accessing world-class engineering talent. The new hub will enable faster product innovation, enhanced customer support across time zones, and deeper partnerships with the commercial contractors building America’s infrastructure.
“It’s an exciting time to be in Raleigh, and we’re pleased that BuildOps selected our city for their new office hub,” said Raleigh Mayor Janet Cowell. “With numerous infrastructure investments underway, including exciting downtown projects such as the Convention Center expansion, the new Omni Hotel, and the opening of the Gibson Play Plaza, among others, BuildOps joins Raleigh during a period of impressive growth. They’ll have a chance to be part of Raleigh’s next chapter.”
The Raleigh expansion marks a pivotal moment in BuildOps’ mission to modernize the commercial contracting industry. As skilled labor shortages and operational complexities continue to challenge contractors nationwide, BuildOps’ platform provides the technological edge needed to thrive in an increasingly competitive market.
The company’s rapid growth-fueled by strong demand from contractors seeking to digitize their operations-has positioned BuildOps as the largest and most influential commercial contractor platform in North America. With operations now spanning Los Angeles, Toronto, and Raleigh, BuildOps is strategically positioned to support contractors across the continent.
