Case Study: Satterfield & Pontikes achieves better cost control and fewer change orders with Assemble Systems

Satterfield and Pontikes - Customer Case Study

Satterfield and Pontikes faced a highly complex, multi-phase renovation at Delta JFK IAT Terminal 4, where they had to keep airport operations running while managing shifting design requirements, tight budget controls, and complicated project coordination. To handle the Delta JFK IAT Redevelopment Program, they used Assemble Systems’ Assemble platform alongside Revit for model takeoff and project controls.

Assemble Systems helped Satterfield and Pontikes move from six-week review cycles to weekly design-to-budget analysis, quickly extract model data, and improve reporting across design, construction, and owner teams. The results included at least 195 days refocused on higher-value work, a 30% reduction in change orders, and about $47 million in savings for the owner, while also improving productivity and decision-making speed.
