Procore announces leadership shift, multiyear cloud and AI pact with AWS, and new golf sponsorship

Procore Technologies signaled a major strategic shift in leadership, cloud strategy and industry outreach in a single announcement. The company’s founder and chief executive will move into an executive chairman role once a successor CEO is in place. At the same time, Procore revealed a new multiyear partnership with a large cloud provider, named a senior industry executive to a new transformation role, and became title sponsor of a Napa golf tournament that will open the FedExCup Fall Season.

What was announced and why it matters

The most immediate news is a strategic agreement to deepen technical cooperation with a global cloud services provider. The arrangement covers joint go-to-market activities, engineering collaboration, and product work focused on construction. The partnership also brings Procore’s construction management platform into the cloud provider’s online software marketplace, enabling easier procurement and deployment for customers who use that cloud environment.

A central technical element of the pact is use of the cloud provider’s foundational large language model service to power Procore’s AI offerings. Procore plans to embed AI agents that automate construction tasks, analyze documents, streamline workflows and surface project analytics that aim to reduce risk and speed delivery. Cross-team engineering initiatives between Procore’s product and technology staff and the cloud provider are planned to accelerate those capabilities.

Leadership and industry transformation

The founder’s pending transition to an executive chairman position is contingent on hiring a new CEO. This leadership move accompanies the appointment of a senior industry executive as Head of Industry Transformation. In that advisory role, the executive will guide product and sales engineering teams on customer and partner requirements, draw on more than 25 years of construction technology experience, and support international adoption of digital tools.

AI, digital twins and customer use cases

The partnership emphasizes expanded use of AI-enabled workflows and data interoperability. Procore will use the cloud provider’s model-serving service to build and run AI agents for tasks such as document analytics and construction task automation. One contractor is already collaborating with the trio of company, cloud provider and contractor to digitize its construction management process and to use real-time project analytics to improve decision-making and reduce risk.

The announcement also referenced the growing interest in digital twins. While prominent, large-scale digital twin efforts have often focused on city-level uses—such as environmental monitoring and urban dashboards—contractors and software-makers are increasingly applying the technology at project and site levels to address labor and supply challenges, support operations and inform future design and facility management.

Sponsorship and community engagement

Separately, the company agreed to become the title sponsor of a long-running professional golf event in Napa. The tournament will be rebranded and will serve as the kickoff to the next FedExCup Fall Season at a resort venue in September. All four rounds will be televised domestically, with additional featured coverage available on streaming platforms. Net proceeds from the event are designated to benefit regional and national charities through a dedicated impact foundation.

Company scale and platform reach

The company reports that its platform has been used on over one million projects and has managed more than $1 trillion in construction volume. The platform connects owners, general contractors and specialty contractors and includes an app marketplace with partner integrations. The firm maintains a global office footprint and lists its corporate headquarters in California.

Notable operational and partnership details

  • The cloud partnership includes joint product innovation and shared engineering efforts.
  • Procore’s offering is now available through the cloud provider’s marketplace.
  • Procore will leverage the cloud provider’s large language model service to power its AI agents and developer tooling.
  • A contractor partner is piloting digitization and real-time analytics to improve project KPIs and reduce risk.
  • The new industry transformation lead will advise product and sales engineering and will also hold external advisory roles in the broader building-science community.
  • The Napa tournament will continue at its long-time resort venue and is intended to support local charities through event proceeds.

Timing and next steps

The cloud partnership was announced late in August and will roll out over multiple years. Product teams from both companies plan expanded collaboration in engineering and developer tools, and the company says further integration work is underway though specific product timelines were not disclosed. The leadership transition timing depends on the appointment of a new CEO.
