Case Study: JD Powell Construction reduces rework and streamlines job site communication with Digs

Field Calls Were Eating This Builder's Day Until He Centralized Everything in One Place

JD Powell Construction, a $7 million-a-year design-build firm, was facing significant challenges with disjointed communication on its job sites. Crews were reliant on physical paper packets, leading to constant interruptions for founder Jon Powell, who was fielding numerous calls daily for missing specs and details. This inefficiency was causing delays and costly mistakes on their ultra-custom projects. The company turned to the vendor Digs for a solution.

By implementing the Digs platform as a central hub for all project information, the team achieved real-time visibility and collaboration. The solution resulted in a dramatic reduction of at least 20 disruptive calls per week and eliminated major rework issues that previously cost thousands per job. Digs also enabled faster project schedules and provided a tool for transparency that now helps win new business.
