Case Study: Walls Construction achieves faster, paperless subcontractor processing with RedSky IT

Walls Construction digitises 400-500 monthly subcontractor certs with RedSky IT

Walls Construction, a major Irish building contractor, faced significant inefficiencies and delays in its paper-based process for managing subcontractor payment certificates. Their manual system, involving handwritten forms and multiple approvals, led to errors, payment delays, and a lack of visibility, creating bottlenecks and frustrating both their accounts team and subcontractors. To address this, they turned to their long-time vendor, RedSky IT, to implement a digital solution using the RedSky subcontractor certifications and approvals module.

RedSky IT implemented a fully digital workflow for certificates and later for invoice processing, which streamlined approvals and eliminated manual data entry. The solution provided complete visibility, removed bottlenecks, and drastically improved accuracy and speed. While no specific financial figure was provided, Walls Construction reported a small, efficient accounts team of just six people, attributing this to their digitized processes. The system also proved invaluable by enabling a seamless transition to remote work during the pandemic, protecting both their operations and their staff.
