Case Study: Brien Electrical achieves streamlined operations and owner freedom with simPRO Connect

The apprentice who bought the business

Brien Electrical, based in Paraparaumu and run by Mark & Monique Brosnahan, grew from a 3-person operation to a 33-strong electrical business but struggled with material loss, paper-based invoicing and excessive downtime from staff travelling to collect job cards. To address these issues they turned to Simpro and its field solution, simPRO Connect, to modernize job management and control materials.

Simpro implemented simPRO Connect to give technicians mobile access to schedules, job details and real‑time workflows, which slashed downtime, improved materials control and streamlined invoicing. The clarity and mobility provided by Simpro mean crews now start each day knowing where they’re going and what’s required, and Mark can step back from day‑to‑day operations—even take extended leave—while the business runs smoothly.
