Case Study: W. L. French Excavating Corporation achieves 2x efficiency and consolidated project management with Procore

W. L. French Consolidates to One System and Doubles Efficiency

W. L. French Excavating Corporation, a family‑owned specialty site contractor founded in 1972, provides mass excavation, site remediation, utility installation, trucking and soil/aggregate services. The company struggled with project information scattered across three systems, per‑seat licensing that limited collaboration, and frequently changing drawings and safety plans, making it hard to ensure everyone worked from the latest documents or to track purchase orders, contracts and inspections.

They implemented Procore to centralize documents with real‑time updates, unlimited user access and integrations like DocuSign, photos and forms, simplifying workflows and traceability. As a result, processes accelerated (allowing two inspections in the time it previously took to do one), on‑time paperwork rose to 95%, accountability and safety improved, the team saved roughly a salary in time costs, and full adoption could yield up to ~$900K in annual savings.
