Case Study: Compass Construction halves manpower meeting time and reduces resource-planning prep by 84% with Bridgit Bench

How Compass Construction uses time and resources more effectively with Bridgit Bench

Compass Construction, a Kirkland, Washington general contractor founded in 1988 that delivers mixed‑use, multi‑family, student housing and assisted‑living projects (85% repeat business), was struggling with time‑intensive resource planning. Operations manager David Diltz was spending 2–3 hours daily preparing manpower schedules in Microsoft Project, facing 30‑minute updates, poor document feedback from PDFs, and a lack of a repeatable process that everyone could use.

Switching to Bridgit Bench gave Compass centralized, real‑time dashboards, a 12‑month GANTT view, custom fields and mobile access, making schedules easy to view and adjust. The team cut manpower meeting time by about 50% and reduced resource‑planning prep time by 84%, increased pre‑meeting engagement, lowered planning fatigue, improved resource coordination, and freed Diltz to focus on administration and process improvements—positively impacting productivity and the bottom line.
