Case Study: Kajima Building & Design Group achieves predictive, real-time workforce planning and growth with Bridgit Bench

How Kajima Building and Design Group is fueling growth with construction workforce intelligence

Kajima Building & Design Group (KBD Group), the U.S. construction arm of Japan’s Kajima Corporation and an ENR Top 400 firm, needed a better way to manage resource planning across multiple offices. Relying on individual Excel spreadsheets made it difficult to share, update, forecast, and maintain an accurate, enterprise-wide view of people and project needs as the company grew.

KBD Group implemented Bridgit Bench, a cloud-based workforce intelligence platform built for construction, to centralize people and project data and provide real-time availability, forecasting, and utilization reporting. The result was immediate clarity and organization in staffing, easier creation of project team templates and phase-based plans, improved forward-looking insight for recruitment and capacity decisions, and faster updates as projects and dates shifted.
