Senior Housing & Assisted Living Construction Experience

Katerra is transforming
through technology -
every process and every
product.
Katerra was founded due to an overwhelming
need for change within the industries that
create our built environment.

While other major industries have radically


modernized, construction still employs many
practices first introduced more than 100 years
ago. As a result, productivity is falling, costs are
rising, the construction workforce is shrinking,
quality is variable, and demand outpaces
supply.

As a technology-led, end-to-end construction


services partner, Katerra answers all of these
challenges. We are creating new value for our
partners by optimizing every aspect of building
development, design, and construction.

Smarter building. Better


communities. For everyone.
