Case Study: Hoar Construction achieves $1M+ in savings and major rework reduction with PlanGrid Build

Hoar Construction - Customer Case Study

Hoar Construction, a large Alabama general contractor, faced major document-control challenges on the 770,000 sq. ft., $175M NEA Baptist Hospital project after starting with a paper-based workflow that was costly and hard to maintain. Midway through the job they sought a digital solution to reduce time wasted retrieving printed plans, prevent outdated drawings in the field, and improve coordination among crews.

They deployed PlanGrid for automatic syncing, versioning and instant access to RFIs, submittals, schedules and drawings, letting teams resolve issues on the spot and spend more time in the field. The implementation stopped paper set printing and delivered significant savings — reported figures include $478,872 in time savings, $23,464 in paper savings and $294,000 in reduced rework — driving an exceptional ROI (7,753%) and, overall, more than a million dollars in project savings.
