Case Study: Ford AV achieves streamlined task and document management across 50+ crews with Fieldwire by Hilti

Ford uses Fieldwire for hundreds of audio visual projects to manage thousands of documents and tasks, and connect 50+ field crews on one platform

Ford AV, the world’s fifth largest AV contractor with 500+ employees across 21 locations, needed to replace disparate tools to manage roughly 700 projects a year, coordinate 50+ field crews, and handle thousands of documents and tasks under tight timelines. They selected Fieldwire by Hilti as a single, simple construction management platform to scale operations and streamline communication between office and field teams.

Fieldwire by Hilti was rolled out for plan viewing, task management, punch lists, scheduling and mobile reporting, enabling 100% of crews to work from one platform. Ford AV has uploaded 27,509 plans and created 21,276 tasks across 785 projects, and now uses real‑time comments and photos, priority tagging, Gantt scheduling and instant punch‑list reports to speed closeout, reduce disputes, improve labor planning and drive measurable efficiency across hundreds of annual projects.
