Case Study: Sundt Construction achieves real-time field collaboration and unified plans with PlanGrid Build

Sundt Construction - Customer Case Study

Sundt Construction, a 100% employee‑owned ENR Top 400 contractor, faced a cultural and operational challenge: re‑engaging a jaded workforce, breaking the industry’s adversarial mindset, and extracting the full value from digital tools like PlanGrid to prevent version control errors and resistance to change. Leadership needed a way to improve field collaboration and empower teams without relying solely on cost-cutting measures.

Sundt addressed this by investing in education and change management around PlanGrid—training crews to use the platform as a single source of truth across devices and showing tangible benefits to even the most resistant superintendents. The result was wider adoption, fewer drawing/version mistakes, more empowered frontline problem-solving, higher employee engagement, and ultimately better project outcomes and margins.
