Bio
As a construction organization upheld by people focused values, O’Shea Builders is a leading commercial construction services provider headquartered in Springfield, Illinois. Established in 1900, the firm has expanded their service offering, growing to three key business areas, each run by specialized teams: Building Construction, Civil Construction, and Building Services.
"We knew that it was going to take close to two years end-to-end to get it all done. While we got a lot of value out of the first year, we’re in that optimize phase right now, specifically for Accounting, Project Management and Opportunity Management." — Harry Schmidt, Director of Business Strategies, O’Shea Builders.
The Challenges
14 non-integrated business systems were creating inefficiencies and redundancies.
A growing volume of complex projects had outpaced their existing project management tools.
Document management processes lacked a consistent, universal format.
Heavy reliance on manual processes and reporting was slowing the business down.
How CMiC Helped
Replaced O'Shea's 14 disconnected systems with one unified platform built specifically for construction.
Gave project managers more sophisticated tools to handle increasingly complex projects, with automated workflows replacing manual reporting.
Results
Accelerated time to execute contracts, now down to 2.5 days for subcontract changes.
Real-time visibility into project data for office and field teams improved risk management and strengthened collaboration.
Managers now have the bandwidth to prioritize tasks effectively instead of getting pulled into manual work.
"CMiC helps preserve that information flow and continuity in a way that we didn’t understand before. What’s more – the information that we’re sharing spreads across the entire value stream
of the organization." — Harry Schmidt, Director of Business Strategies, O’Shea Builders.
