Case Study: The Austin Company saves time and cuts costs with RedSky IT construction finance software

The Austin Company - Customer Case Study

The Austin Company of UK, a construction consultancy and engineering firm, faced a significant challenge with its costly and manual finance processes. Its small finance team was spending excessive time manually rekeying Excel timesheets and processing paper payslips, which was costing the business approximately £30,000 annually. To address this, the company turned to vendor RedSky IT to migrate from its existing AXiM software to the Summit financial platform.

RedSky IT implemented its Summit software, which introduced web-based timesheets and encrypted e-payslips. This solution automated the previously manual tasks, saving the finance team countless hours. The results were substantial, with the system expected to deliver a £92,000 return on investment over five years. RedSky's solution also provided better project cost visibility and ensured additional work was properly captured and billed.
