HBASmart gives your Home Builders Association its own app on iOS, Android and the web, under your name and logo. Every app includes a calendar, push notifications and a discussion board. Then add the modules your members need for education, bidding and membership.
Illustration. Your HBA's name, logo and colors appear in your app.
HBASmart is a branded app platform built specifically for Home Builders Associations by ParadeSmart, the team behind the Parade of Homes apps used by more than 50 HBAs since 2012. Each HBA gets its own app, under its own name and logo, on iOS, Android and the web.
Instead of one tool for member communication, another for continuing education, another for bidding and another for dues, HBASmart brings them into one app with one login and one member record. Start with the core app, then add modules as your association is ready.
iOS and Android apps plus a web app on your HBA's own subdomain, all carrying your name and logo.
Members sign in once to reach every feature and module your association offers, on mobile or web.
Every module reads from the same member identity, so active membership means the same thing everywhere.
Each tool has its own login, its own member list and its own upkeep, and member communication ends up spread across email, text and social media.
Even if your HBA never adds a module, members get a modern way to stay connected. Each module plugs into these shared features instead of shipping its own version.
One HBA calendar for member events, meetings, education, bid deadlines and association dates.
App push notifications, not SMS. HBA staff reach every member or a specific group, and modules send their own alerts through the same channel.
An open forum for all members, with private groups when a committee, council, course cohort or trade group needs one.
Choose one, two or all three. Every module uses the core calendar, notifications and discussion board, and every module shares the same login.
Available now
A branded learning platform for online courses, in-person classes, workshops and CE sessions. Formerly Next Level Builders.
Early access
General Contractors post projects. Subcontractors who belong to your HBA submit private bids from their phones.
Coming soon
The member record behind every module: profiles, active or lapsed status, renewals and the member directory, inside the same app.
Modules plug into the core features instead of building their own, so members get one calendar, one stream of notifications and one discussion board no matter how many modules your HBA adds.
| Core feature | MemberBuild | MemberBid | MemberBase |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calendar | Classes, CE sessions, workshops and events | Bid due dates, project walk-throughs and award dates | Renewal dates, member events and meetings |
| Push notifications | Class reminders, registration confirmations and a "What You Missed" digest | Bid received and bid awarded alerts, with trade-based new-project alerts on the roadmap | Expiration and renewal reminders, plus association-wide announcements |
| Discussion board | Private course and cohort discussion groups | Trade and project discussion | Member-only threads, with access set by active status |
The branded app with its core features is the starting point. Modules stack on top in any combination, and members never need a new app or a new login when you add one.
Your HBA's own app for member communication and events.
For example, an HBA that wants branded education first.
For example, bidding gated by live membership status.
The complete retention story: renew to keep bidding and education access.
Pricing for HBASmart packages is being finalized. Request a demo to walk through options for your association and ask about becoming a founding HBA partner.
Most members will live in the mobile app. The same platform also runs as a web app on a subdomain of your HBA's website, with the same login, the same data and your branding, so it adds to the website you already have without a rebuild.
Add Member Login, Classes and Events, or Bid Board buttons to your existing site and link members straight to the right page. HBA staff get a full-screen admin experience in the browser.
| Feature | Mobile app | Web app |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar | Full | Full |
| Notifications | Push notifications | In-app notifications |
| Discussion board | Full | Full |
| MemberBuild | Full | Full |
| MemberBid | Full | Full, and better suited to reviewing plans and comparing bids |
| MemberBase | Member profile and renewal | Member profile and renewal, plus the full admin dashboard |
When bidding, education and the member community all live in your HBA's app, active membership is what keeps members connected. Renew to keep bidding. Renew to keep learning. Renew to stay in the conversation.
