About CIMS

CIMS is a project management software from Ramaker & Associates that supports the management of construction and infrastructure projects. It includes features for tracking project timelines, budgeting, and resource allocation so project managers can ensure effective oversight and control. CIMS allows users to monitor progress in real-time and adjust plans as necessary, fostering collaboration among team members and stakeholders. The software is designed to facilitate reporting and compliance, simplifying data analysis for informed decision-making. Key capabilities: project tracking budget management resource allocation real-time reporting compliance management Best for: project managers and teams that need to oversee multiple construction or infrastructure projects efficiently.

CIMS (Cemetery Information Management System), developed by Ramaker & Associates, is a specialized software built to modernize cemetery management by digitizing records and connecting them to an interactive GIS-based map. The system is designed for a wide range of cemeteries, from small municipal and religious organizations to large corporate and military cemeteries, offering three product tiers—Light, Gold, and Platinum—to meet varying operational and budgetary needs. Its central purpose is to move cemeteries away from paper records and into a cloud-based environment where ownership, burial, and marker information is instantly accessible through an intuitive map interface. The visual component is particularly valuable, as color-coded maps quickly reveal which plots are available, sold, or reserved, providing a clear operational overview that simplifies daily tasks. The functionality of CIMS is one of its biggest strengths. At its core, the platform links each plot on the digital map with the corresponding data, so when a user clicks a location, all associated information—such as burial details, deeds, or photographs—appears immediately.
