Case Study: Metromont Corporation streamlines estimating and reduces costly errors with Kopis

Kopis worked with Metromont to combine three different estimation tools to create one, streamlined custom software solution for their niche industry

Metromont Corporation, a provider of precast concrete for major construction projects, faced significant challenges with its inefficient and error-prone estimating process. The company's growth to six plants was hampered by using three separate, cumbersome software tools that lacked real-time updates and transparency between locations. After a year of searching for an off-the-shelf solution, they partnered with vendor Kopis to develop a custom software solution that would fit their niche industry needs.

Kopis implemented a custom application using an Agile development process, which combined Metromont's three previous tools into a single, streamlined platform. The solution provided real-time updates across all plant locations, drastically reducing the chance for human error and creating a more efficient workflow for both estimators and sales representatives. The measurable impact was substantial; Metromont estimates the software saves them approximately $180,000 annually by preventing costly misquotes and has allowed them to resell the tool to other non-competing companies.
