BUILD Construction & Engineering Awards 2020 88 eveloped by an industry veteran who understands the design process and the needs of those in the construction industry, DesignerHub has become the place where companies can find their next in-building systems designer. During a recent conversation, Ryan gave us a brief overview of the firm and offered more insight into its clientele. “Owned and operated by a freelance designer in the fire protection industry, DesignerHub aims to support clients with their design needs, giving them access to over 300 freelance designers and design & engineering firms. Additionally, we work with modelers, BIM specialists, detailers and companies in the fire protection, fire alarm/special hazards & MEP industries. “Jobs can be posted on our employment board, and we will look after the rest. Since the beginning, we have strictly abided by our core values in everything we do, demonstrating our hard work, honesty, energy, compassion, dedication, and dependability. Moreover, these are the values upon which DesignerHub was founded, and they will never change.” Best Fire Protection Solutions Company - USA Established in 2013, DesignerHub was created to connect designers in the U.S construction industry. Following their success in the Construction & Engineering Awards 2020, we touched base with Ryan Waterman to find out more about one of the best fire protection solutions companies operating in the industry today. D Sep20484 Helping people find work is what DesignerHub is passionate about; however, with the recent outbreak of COVID-19 resulting in many individuals losing their jobs, it has become a job market for design and engineering professionals. Despite this, as Ryan goes on to explain, we are doing everything we can to support people. “DesignerHub provides a service to the construction industry by helping freelance designers and design & engineering firms connect with new clients, building relationships that last all over the world. As a collective, we are all about helping people get exposure for the services they can provide and helping people find employment. With many people losing their jobs due to the pandemic, we are providing a free platform for people to upload their resumes to our employment board, with their names and links to their resumes included in all of our weekly emails and posted on our LinkedIn board.” Currently, the construction industry is slowing down considerably due to the pandemic, but as Ryan explains further, he is hopeful the firm’s connections will open up opportunities in some parts of the world as they are halted in others. “DesignerHub is all about helping people make long lasting connections. As a whole, we are dedicated to building connections for in-building systems design, and with the field relatively untouched, there are huge opportunities for growth. However, it’s important to build connections on a global scale, especially during these uncertain times.” Ryan also shared his vision for the future prospects of DesignerHub in 2021 and beyond. “The reconstruction of DesignerHub.com is very exciting, and the new site will be much more user friendly. With a dashboard that will show the contacts who click on your profile and the requests for proposals in all industries, we will have a better online presence and much, much more. The launch date is currently scheduled for March 2021.” Company: DesignerHub Contact: Ryan Waterman Web: www.DesignerHub.com
