About our company & people
Reed Construction Data, formerly known as Cordell Building Information Services, is part of one of the world's largest information groups: the UK based Reed Elsevier.
As Cordell, we were a household name in the construction industry. Today, as Reed Construction Data, we have access to world's best practice in business processes, greater access to developments in product delivery technologies and techniques, and an even more robust market intelligence gathering capability.
Our parent company, Reed Business Information, operates throughout the world, offering business-to-business information solutions in the areas of construction, manufacturing and electronics, entertainment, communications, computing, exhibitions, and web development - to name but a few.
Here in Australia and Asia, other Reed companies include Butterworths, Harcourt, Reed Exhibitions, Infolink and LexisNexis.
Founded in 1968 by Joan Cordell, Reed Construction Data is committed to offering the very best market intelligence and information products possible. Now, and into the future.
Our employees are a happy, united team of 125 hard-working and committed professionals located in offices around Australia - Sydney (our headquarters), Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
We work together extremely well. We are not dazzled by corporate structure and authoritarianism but rather by a great sense of sharing and co-operation where management and staff combine as one to produce top-shelf products and services.
Our average length of employment is 7.7 years per employee which means that there is a huge amount of experience, expertise, industry connections and knowledge that is being put to work for you our customer, every day!
We are fiercely proud of our Australian heritage, our company, our work - and our ability to provide you with information that we know you will find dynamically relevant and useful in building your business.
There is nothing better for us than to see the power of what we produce help your business develop, grow and prosper.
Most of all, we like to deliver. Not talk about it - but actually do it - for our customers, our suppliers and our partners.
