OneCrew Raises $7.5M Series A to Deliver Industry-First Unified Platform for $150B Paving Industry

OneCrew, a purpose-built platform for paving contractors, announced a $7.5 million Series A led by Stage 2 Capital, with participation from existing investors Entourage and Bienville Capital.

For decades, the paving industry has relied on disconnected processes, spreadsheets for estimates, whiteboards for scheduling and crew management, and job costing tracked in notebooks and scraps of paper. But with rising infrastructure demand and a generational shift in leadership, contractors need new capabilities to understand profitability, coordinate their teams, and meet the growing demand.

Customers using OneCrew report 40% revenue increases and 75% faster estimate creation. One early customer grew from $6 million to $25+ million in revenue over three years with the platform, while another scaled from a solo operation into a multi-crew business in less than a year.

“With OneCrew, we can bid competitively, consistently follow up with customers, understand our close rates, and accurately job cost,” said Alisha Wright of Empire Paving & Maintenance. "Before OneCrew, we had no idea if or where we were making money. Today, we're more profitable than ever, and we can roll profits back into the business to keep growing."

"For the first time, the office and field are truly connected," said Ari Bleemer, co-founder and CEO of OneCrew. "Hours of communications that pull people away from what they do best are replaced by quick reference of OneCrew. When something changes on a job, everyone can know in a matter of seconds. That level of visibility just wasn't possible before."

As private equity firms consolidate the industry by acquiring regional contractors, many paving companies are looking for other ways to grow. At the same time, owner retirements are creating knowledge gaps that make operations harder to manage. OneCrew serves both independent contractors scaling through stronger operations and enterprises standardizing operations across multiple locations.

The Series A funding will fuel hiring across all teams as OneCrew expands its vision beyond individual contractor software. The company plans to launch its Subcontractor Portal and enterprise platform in Q4, creating a comprehensive ecosystem that connects all players in the paving supply chain.

"We're building more than software for individual contractors, we're creating the operating system for the entire paving industry," said Ari Bleemer, co-founder and CEO of OneCrew. "This year we'll launch our Subcontractor Portal and enterprise platform to connect every part of the paving ecosystem, from the office to the field and across the entire supply chain."

For existing investors, the rapid progress since OneCrew's seed round has exceeded expectations.

With contractors across the US and Canada already proving that paving's digital transformation is not only possible but profitable, OneCrew is positioned to define how the industry operates for the next generation.

OneCrew's cloud-based platform connects office, field, and subcontractor operations for paving contractors across the $150B paving industry, streamlining everything from accurate estimating and winning bids to managing crews and tracking costs. Used by paving contractors throughout the US and Canada, from independent to national operators, OneCrew has helped customers achieve 40% revenue increases and 75% faster estimate creation. All designed for how contractors actually work, OneCrew is backed by Stage 2 Capital, Entourage, and Bienville Capital and is based in San Francisco, California.
