About Rise Construction Framework

Founded in 2016 by Sara Lawton, Rise drives social value through capital projects for health, education, housing and local authority clients. Its 12 framework groups span works from general construction to fire safety, and consultancy from architecture to cost management. Over 80% of partners are SMEs, and Rise funds voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations across the region.

In 2024, Rise received the King’s Award for Enterprise for Promoting Opportunity.

The Hubdash transformation

Like many other organisations, Rise used to run its framework data on cumbersome spreadsheets. Projects, supply partners, insurance and social investment all had to be updated and cross-checked by hand.

Hubdash replaced them with one connected system built around how the framework works. The team now saves hours of admin each week, and day-to-day operations run without spreadsheet fatigue.

From spreadsheets to connected records

Each part of the framework now has its own record type in Hubdash, alongside built-in Tasks and Leads, with its own fields, pipeline and links to related records.

Construction projects tracked by stage and milestone
Insurance policy expiry alerts sent to team members
Social investment totals calculated automatically

Notes, tasks and automations

Work happens on the records themselves. Tasks, notes and notifications sit on the project, partner or policy they relate to, so the team always knows what needs doing next and why.

Tasks set against records, so everyone knows what’s next
Notes on any record keep the full context in one place
Automated notifications keep team leaders up to date
