Case Study: Berglund Construction achieves better workforce visibility and labor planning with Procore Resource Management

Berglund Construction forecasts labor months ahead with Procore

Berglund Construction, a Chicago-based general contractor specializing in masonry restoration and historic preservation, faced significant challenges in coordinating its large, self-performed workforce across multiple projects. Using manual methods like spreadsheets, whiteboards, and constant phone calls created a heavy communication burden and made it difficult to forecast labor needs or scale operations efficiently. To address this, they turned to Procore and implemented its Resource Management product.

By implementing Procore Resource Management, Berglund centralized its workforce planning, gaining real-time visibility into crew availability and project needs. The solution from Procore replaced manual coordination, enabling the company to forecast labor demand months in advance and allocate crews more strategically. The results included a dramatically improved planning horizon, reduced administrative workload for field leaders, and the confidence to pursue more work knowing they had the labor or a plan to acquire it.
