Case Study: Bernards scales operational excellence with Procore AI

Bernards cuts AP busy work by 60% to 70% with Procore

Bernards, an employee-owned commercial builder, faced challenges with inconsistent operations and risk management due to highly customized legacy systems. As the company grew, these systems made it difficult to onboard new hires and gain a reliable view of project performance. To address this, they partnered with vendor Procore to standardize on its project management and financial platform.

By implementing Procore's platform and its AI solutions, including the recently acquired Datagrid, Bernards standardized workflows and created clean, structured data. The results included codifying decades of learning with agentic AI, identifying project risks through data analysis, and significantly reducing administrative busy work. Procore's solution helped cut 60-70% of manual accounts payable tasks, potentially freeing up two or three full-time employees for higher-value work.
