Kahua Integrations and Open API: Because One Size Doesn’t Fit All

Anyone using enterprise construction software today has probably experienced tech platforms that try to solve for everything: They keep you in their one system only, making it hard to import or export data from other systems.  

At Kahua, we often run into this scenario as well when implementing a new instance of our platform, where our team or partner organizations are required to migrate data from a former system.  

But let’s face it: No single system exists today that can manage EVERY single construction workflow from design to handoff. Digital tools must play well with others to really be functional for an organization throughout the project lifecycle.  

kBuilder custom Kahua integrationsThis is foundational to Kahua’s premise. Our entire solution is built on a low-code application platform called kBuilder, which enables our customers to tailor the system to their own best practices and build applications to address specific needs. That said, our commitment extends beyond kBuilder. Our API strategy follows that same model, and our platform hosts out-of-the-box integrations with several best-in-class solutions.  

Customers have integrated Kahua with hundreds of systems, such as ERPs, asset management systems, estimating and procurement tools, document management solutions, BIM and drawing management applications, and scheduling apps. Coming from a software delivery background, some of these integrations are the most robust I’ve seen in my career. 

Kahua’s open API allows for fully configurable integrations, for those companies that can't use out-of-the-box integrations. 

Kahua’s seamless integration allowed us the flexibility to migrate our integration from one system to another with confidence and relatively low effort.”

Read on to see just a few of the many construction management solutions that Kahua’s Project Management Information System (PMIS)  integrates with. 

Kahua ERP Integrations 

Kahua connects with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems to sync budgets, contracts, and cost data in real time. This reduces manual entry, eliminates data silos, and keeps financials accurate across systems. 

Kahua Asset Management Integrations 

Facility and asset data collected during construction flows directly into the owner’s asset management platform. That means smoother handoffs, better preventive maintenance, and a clearer picture of lifecycle costs.

Kahua Estimating & Procurement Integrations 

Kahua integrates with estimating and procurement platforms to streamline sourcing, bidding, and vendor management. It connects early-stage project costs with downstream contracts and approvals, without duplicate entry. 

Kahua Document Management Integrations 

Construction documents, like RFIs, submittals, drawings, contracts, can flow into and out of Kahua’s environment through document management integrations. This keeps teams aligned and compliant, with full version control and audit trails. 

Kahua BIM and Drawing Management Integrations 

Design files, models, and markups from authoring tools sync directly with Kahua’s drawing management suite. Everyone stays on the same page, with current versions and comments available in real time. 

Kahua Scheduling Integrations 

Project schedules created in external tools can be imported, viewed, and managed within Kahua’s scheduling environment. Teams can track progress, visualize dependencies, and report delays without toggling between systems. 

In addition to the construction software tools on the list above, Kahua has many other valuable integrations, and a deeply experienced integration team and partners.  

If you don’t see your tools on the list, contact us. We may already have an integration for the software you’re already using. If we don’t, we can build it! 

Finding the right systems and processes for a small business is a journey. We searched for the right PMIS for quite a while until we found Kahua. Your customers don't need to fit inside a box—we tweaked it to fit us and meet our needs. I’m very excited for our team to be a part of the Kahua network!

- Lee Powers, President, AVCOR 

These construction software Intergrations with Kahua are built by our internal development teams, partners, and customer dev teams—all with the goal of connecting data and teams in a secure, FedRAMP-certified and CMMC-aligned environment, no matter where they are.
