Case Study: Balfour Beatty Construction reduces waste and boosts efficiency with erwin data modeling and collaboration platforms

Reduces waste and boosts efficiency with erwin data modeling and collaboration platforms

Balfour Beatty Construction, a leading U.S. construction management firm, faced up to 40% project waste and needed to dramatically improve how process documentation was created, shared and accessed—its previous Word/Excel files in SharePoint limited collaboration and innovation. To address this, the company chose erwin data modeling and collaboration platforms to modernize and centralize process documentation.

erwin’s business process and operations specialists delivered a customized solution built on the erwin data modeling and collaboration platforms; deployment took only a few weeks and more than 2,500 employees began using the system. The new platform cut new-employee training to about 10 minutes, encouraged standardization that reduced waste, spurred greater innovation, and improved forecasting productivity by roughly 5%.
