**Job Overview****:** Rex Moore is looking for a Business Applications Product Manager to help manage, improve, and expand the applications that support our construction operations, project delivery, business processes, and internal teams.

This role sits within OOIA and works closely with business leaders, field teams, project teams, IT, vendors, and implementation partners to ensure our software tools are practical, connected, adopted, and delivering measurable value.

This position supports Rex Moore’s business application portfolio, including construction applications, field and project tools, CRM, ERP-related systems, custom-built business applications, reporting tools, workflow platforms, and other business-critical software. The role will help evaluate new applications when business needs arise, improve existing tools, manage enhancement requests, coordinate vendors, support adoption, and ensure applications align with how work actually gets done.

The ideal candidate is part product manager, part project manager, and part business systems partner. They should be comfortable working with users, gathering requirements, prioritizing features, managing vendors, coordinating application projects, supporting rollouts, and helping the company get more value from its technology stack.

This is not a software engineering role and it is not limited to one system. It is an application ownership and business enablement role focused on making sure Rex Moore has the right tools, uses them well, and continues improving them as the business grows.

• Partner with departments to understand application pain points, process gaps, duplicate tools, manual workarounds, and unmet business needs.
• Recommend when existing applications should be improved, integrated, automated, expanded, replaced, consolidated, or retired.
• Help establish and maintain application standards, documentation, ownership models, and governance practices.

• Identify opportunities to improve visibility, reduce manual effort, streamline communication, and support better project outcomes.
• Gather feedback from field and project users and translate it into clear requirements, prioritized improvements, and practical next steps.
• Ensure construction and field applications are configured and supported in ways that are usable for the people doing the work.
• Coordinate with vendors, IT, training resources, and business leaders to support successful application adoption.

## Application Roadmap & Feature Prioritization

• Manage application roadmaps, enhancement backlogs, and feature priorities for assigned applications.
• Gather, document, and evaluate feature requests from business users and department leaders.
• Prioritize application improvements based on business value, urgency, user impact, cost, effort, risk, and strategic alignment.
• Make practical recommendations and decisions about what should be improved, built, purchased, configured, or deferred.
• Translate business needs into requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, process notes, and implementation priorities.
• Communicate roadmap decisions, tradeoffs, dependencies, and status updates to stakeholders.

## New Application Evaluation & Selection

• Help identify when new applications may be needed to support business growth, construction operations, process improvement, or modernization efforts.
• Participate in software evaluations, demos, vendor comparisons, pilot programs, and selection discussions.
• Help define business requirements, success criteria, integration needs, data considerations, and adoption risks before selecting new tools.
• Partner with stakeholders to compare whether needs should be met through existing systems, new software, custom development, automation, or process changes.
• Support build-vs-buy conversations and provide recommendations based on value, fit, maintainability, and long-term support needs.

## Custom-Built Business Applications

• Help ensure custom-built applications and software solutions remain useful, supportable, documented, and aligned with business priorities.
• Evaluate whether custom-built applications should be improved, integrated, expanded, replaced, or retired.

## CRM, ERP & Core Business Systems Support

• Support application needs related to CRM, ERP, and other core business systems as part of the broader application portfolio.
• Partner with business stakeholders to understand workflow, data, reporting, integration, and process needs connected to core systems.
• Help coordinate requirements, issue tracking, testing support, enhancement requests, vendor follow-up, and user adoption activities.
