Case Study: Superior Construction achieves 5‑minute budget consolidation with Prophix Software

Constructing a Consolidated Budget for Superior Construction

Superior Construction, a fourth‑generation, family‑owned heavy civil contractor (since 1938, ~ $400M revenue, ~1,000 employees), was relying on Excel to manage budgeting across multiple regional offices. Manual consolidation of 34 files with 7–8 tabs each led to data validation issues, formula errors and version‑control headaches, making budget finalization take several weeks and be difficult for new staff to learn.

They deployed Prophix cloud CPM, integrating GL, phase codes and job‑cost data and aligning with their Vista ERP through a Viewpoint partnership and in‑house implementation. As a result, the finance team can update and consolidate budgets in under five minutes, gain clearer visibility into financial trends, provide more relevant information to banks and sureties, and focus on strategic analysis with plans to expand into WIP reporting, cash forecasting and equipment costing.
