Leander Construction, Inc. is a Midwestern based provider of Civil
construction services, primarily for water treatment and wastewater
plants. Leander's management and operations are committed to
continuous improvement, placing great emphasis on accountability,
innovation, and integrity.
CHALLENGE
The coordination of project teams and
construction processes imposed a heavy
administrative burden on Leander's project
managers. Keeping track of project documents
such as RFIs, Submittals and Daily Logs, along
with the collection and management of field
data in non-integrated apps and spreadsheets
required manual processes and double handling
which increased risk from error and delay.
Collaboration between the extended project
team was hindered by a lack of visibility and
rework stemming from having built off of
construction drawings that didn't reflect the
latest changes. Heavily reliant on email, project
communications were multi-layered in order to
keep members of the extended project team
of subcontractors, suppliers, architects and
engineers aligned and on-track.
Additionally, job financials, only accessible from
the accounting ERP, limited the availability of
job cost and billing data. Non ERP users instead
relied on monthly financial reports from the
accounting team.
