Fast-growth Chandos Construction leverages Viewpoint V6 Software.

CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORY

The Company. Chandos Construction, a progressive general contractor based in Edmonton, Alberta is known for its high quality and successful construction projects.  Their leadership has put them on a high-growth path with current annual revenues of $250 million – an increase of more than 40% since 2005.  With an exceptional customer focus, Chandos is ready to deploy where and when their customers need them across Canada.

The Problem: How to leverage exceptional customer service with an IT productivity enhancer Committed to continuous improvement, Chandos is a company continually looking for opportunities to improve and build the future of their company on. With current software reaching its limits, the need for a scalable platform to match company growth objectives became apparent.  These limitations included duplicate data entry for sharing information between departments and a cumbersome change-order process making their project management inefficient.  Seeing this inefficiency, the Chandos team recognized the opportunity for integration and improvement.

A Collaborative Approach. Chandos engaged numerous individuals, including current employees and outside sources while evaluating potential systems.  Realizing synchronizing accounting data with stand-alone systems would be difficult and costly, the team determined they would fully integrate project management with accounting and operations.

“Viewpoint values its relationships with customers – that was evident in the evaluation.”

- Roger Babichuk, VP, Finance & Administration Chandos Construction

After evaluating several systems and visiting customer sites, Chandos decided on Viewpoint V6 Software for its contemporary Microsoft SQL/ .NET platform.  Viewpoint’s experienced consulting team, support and technical staff, low-maintenance update process and IT infrastructure kept start-up and operating costs to a minimum.  This was a major advantage over the other vendors.

- Roger Babichuk, VP, Finance & Administration Chandos Construction
