Background
Zwick Construction is a mid-market general contractor based in Utah. Zwick uses multiple construction software to manage jobs, including Procore, Sage 300, and Oracle Primavera P6. Prior to implementing Kroo, Zwick was using Excel spreadsheets and relying on manual updates for time-intensive reporting processes that took over a month to complete. This impacted Zwick's ability to make timely, data-driven decisions given the lack of real-time information at their fingertips.
Zwick needed a unified platform to optimize project data accessibility, reduce reporting workflows, and create a single source of truth for their project data. The company sought to eliminate manual effort, cut costs associated with additional analytics tools, and enable faster, more efficient reporting to strengthen executive oversight and enhance risk management.
Challenges
Time-intensive reporting workflows: Reporting workflows took over a month to complete, preventing timely access to project insights and hindering decision-making processes.
Heavy manual effort: Without modern data infrastructure, Zwick relied on manual reporting processes and spreadsheets, requiring significant resources to compile data from Sage 300, Procore, and Oracle Primavera P6.
Lack of unified platform: Without a unified data warehouse aggregating all of their data, Zwick was unable to easily monitor projects in real-time, enhance risk management visibility, and identify operational improvements.
After Kroo
After a rapid implementation with Kroo, Zwick transitioned from spreadsheets to a unified platform, enabling faster, more efficient reporting. Kroo seamlessly integrated Sage 300, Procore, and Oracle Primavera P6 to optimize Zwick's project data accessibility and reduce reporting workflows from over a month to near real-time insights.
Benefits Zwick Construction realizes:
Automated manual reporting: Zwick leverages Kroo's pre-built data connectors to eliminate manual data extraction tasks and saved significant hours on reporting workflows.
Single source of truth: Zwick built a managed data warehouse within days by using Kroo, accelerating their data journey with a central source of truth for all of the company's knowledge.
Enhanced strategic capabilities: Kroo strengthened executive oversight, enhanced risk management, and fostered more informed team discussions and training, enabling Zwick to operate with greater confidence and efficiency.
