Case Study: Lanyon Development achieves streamlined processes and greater accountability with Fonn

Streamlined processes and greater accountability now the norm for Lanyon

Lanyon Development, a small main contractor specialising in residential renovations, extensions and lofts, faced fragmented communication across multiple subcontractors, architects and designers. Relying on emails and WhatsApp created version-control issues and missed updates, and Theo Lanyon found most alternative systems too expensive. The company chose Fonn and its construction management app to provide an affordable single source of truth for project information and collaboration.

Fonn centralised document management, created a clear audit trail for submittals and variations, and streamlined workflows so site managers gained autonomy and Theo didn’t need to be on-site as often. The solution increased visibility for the QS and project teams, reduced time spent chasing updates, and improved accountability—Theo reports that even using roughly 50% of Fonn’s features has already made processes noticeably more efficient and scalable.
