Words: Isa Stein

Tradesmen’s Software, an on screen 3D estimating software company that is used by many across the industry, commits to joining the Masonry Alliance Program at the Gold Level. Tradesmen’s Software will join others in the program and have exclusive access to the $33 billion masonry industry. 

"Tradesmen's Software, Inc. is looking forward to exploring the new avenues of growth and opportunities that the Masonry Alliance Program has to offer,” said Christian Kott, Operations Manager at Tradesmen’s Software. 

Availability for verbal commitments in the Masonry Alliance Program is now open to any interested company. The MCAA has recently launched a dedicated website, masonryalliances.com, with full details on the program. Starting in 2024, the MAP replaces Strategic and Corporate Partnerships as the only way for active suppliers to remain involved in MCAA activities. 

“Tradesmen’s Software has continued to be a pleasure to work with, and is advocated for by many of our members. We are very excited to have them join our 2024 Masonry Alliance Program at the Gold Tier, and look forward to their ongoing support,” said Todd Fredrick, MCAA Director of Development. 

The Masonry Alliance Program is broken into four tiers: Cornerstone, Platinum, Gold, and Silver. Items such as event attendance, advertising in MASONRY Magazine, sponsorships, content development, and more will no longer be available to any company outside of the 70 within this program. 

About Tradesmen’s Software: Bill Pacetti, president and developer of Tradesmen’s Software, was born into a family of masons. Generations of the Pacetti family have been involved in the masonry business, dating back to the 1800’s when Bill’s great grandfather was a stonemason in Italy. Tradesmen’s Software’s ongoing success is enhanced by the fact that Bill physically laid brick and block for over thirty-five years and was a mason contractor for thirteen of those years.

That foundation of field experience combined with 30 years in the software business has led to the development of a masonry estimating software that was made for the mason by a mason.  The software is supported by family/team members that have worked in the field and understand the masonry industry.

It is not unusual today for masonry to be treated as a surface decision rather than a structural one. Too often, brick enters a project late in the process, trimmed back by budgets or reduced to a veneer once the “real” building work is finished. The Tian
