Case Study: Mid America Contracting achieves real-time labor tracking and better project scheduling with LaborChart

LaborChart positions general contractor for rapid growth

Mid America Contracting, a general contractor based in Columbia, Illinois, was growing quickly and needed a better way to track people and projects. Their manual scheduling process using TSheets and Microsoft Project was time-consuming and made it difficult for Senior Project Coordinator Marion Chartrand to keep up with frequent assignment changes. LaborChart was brought in as a workforce management platform to help solve these challenges.

Mid America implemented LaborChart and integrated it with Procore across the organization, eliminating duplicate project entry and keeping data accurate and up to date. The team gained real-time visibility into labor availability, project workload, worker skills, and job assignments, which improved planning, bidding, and communication between field and office teams. With LaborChart, Mid America could confidently manage more than 100 jobs in the pipeline and make decisions based on factual data rather than guesswork.
