Case Study: Big-D Construction boosts profitability and scheduling efficiency with Planera

Big-D Construction Improves Profitability, Collaboration, and Scheduling Efficiency

a major contractor faced challenges with inefficient and outdated scheduling processes. Using traditional tools like P6 and Microsoft Project created bottlenecks, delayed updates, and limited visibility among stakeholders, leading to reactive delay handling and margin erosion. They sought a more collaborative solution to improve scheduling efficiency.

By adopting Planera, the contractor implemented a visual, streamlined scheduling interface that enabled real-time collaboration across teams. This solution reduced schedule preparation times, improved risk mitigation, and enhanced stakeholder engagement. Planera helped the contractor forecast an ROI of over $1.5 million in the first year and implement the solution across more than 30 active projects.
