- Higharc cited a webinar poll in which 75% of respondents said builders touched two to three systems for each product or price change.

Higharc and ECI said on November 13, 2026 that they built an integration connecting the home a buyer configures in Higharc with the pricing and contract information managed in ECI MarkSystems. The companies said the link gives builders a defined path for information that otherwise moves between departments through manual re-entry.
Under the workflow the companies described, base plan, elevation and option pricing and lot data move from MarkSystems into Higharc. Buyers configure options through Higharc's interactive 3D Showroom and see pricing maintained in MarkSystems. When a buyer is ready to sign, a sales representative can create the MarkSystems contract record from Higharc, transferring buyer information, the configured home, selected structural options and their prices. Higharc said that replaces entering 15 or 20 options separately with a button click.
Higharc cited a webinar poll in which 75% of respondents said builders touched two to three systems for each product or price change, with some reporting six or more. Jad Buckman, Higharc's director of business development, said most builders keep three versions of a home, maintained by the architectural team, by marketing and in the ERP. He said the resulting costs do not appear as one line item.
John Wood, Higharc's lead product manager, said builders think about designing, selling and building homes rather than software platforms, and that connecting Higharc and MarkSystems removes friction between design, sales and operations. Higharc said the integration was prompted by builders using both systems, and that for its first beta customer implementation led to a closer review of how data was organized in the ERP.
