"Having a partner who could build each phase with the bigger picture in mind—without rushing the process—made all the difference."
Amanda Gibb
CIO, Bedrock

From Fixing Friction to Future-Ready

Bedrock Detroit is a dynamic urban development firm dedicated to revitalizing downtown Detroit and Cleveland through thoughtfully designed mixed-use properties that foster vibrant, sustainable communities. As a driving force in urban renewal, they blend real estate, technology, and community partnerships to transform city centers into thriving cultural and economic hubs.

Problem

Bedrock had come a long way. Contracting was no longer a bottleneck. Teams were finally aligned around a shared CRM strategy. Property data was clean and consistent. But all of that progress revealed a bigger gap: Commercial Leasing didn’t have a scalable system to manage deal flow. Each team had their own process—and none of it connected.

Process

With Fortimize, Bedrock kicked off planning for a dedicated Commercial Leasing CRM. The goal wasn’t to patch problems. It was to build a platform that could centralize approvals, documents, timelines, and reporting—without adding friction. Executives, leasing teams, and tech leads all got involved early to make sure the design worked for everyone, not just one department.

Results

The result wasn’t just a plan—it was a shift. Teams that once resisted change now asked, “What’s next?” The CRM blueprint laid the foundation for a future where deals move faster, data tells a full story, and every team is pulling in the same direction. Salesforce stopped being a tool and started becoming the operating system for growth.
