Finding a Better Solution
"We were collecting data, but it was a cumbersome
process," recalls SSB Controller Alicia Byers, who
oversees finance, HR and safety. "Even with the data
in hand, our old software didn't have the analytics
capabilities we needed to better understand job costs
or plan upcoming marketing based on sales needs,
among other things. We couldn't extract information,
run reports or analyze our data. It was very painful."
SSB began looking for a solution that would make
it easy to capture and analyze data and track
benchmarks from year to year. In 2016, the firm began
using Trimble Viewpoint's ProContractor, an all-in-one
business management solution for small to medium-
sized construction firms that streamlines business
processes with dedicated accounting, estimating and
mobile field support modules. "With ProContractor,
our accounting and project management workflows
were more efficient, and we were finally able to dig
deeper into our data," Byers says.
