Case Study: University of Maryland Medical Center achieves dramatic reporting time savings and streamlined capital program management with Trimble e-Builder

University of Maryland Medical Center - Customer Case Study

The University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC), one of the nation’s oldest academic medical centers operating two hospitals and a $40M annual capital improvement program (including a $600M hospital and a $175M cancer center expansion), struggled with decentralized documents, paper-based field surveys, contractor-dependent records, and a time-consuming reporting process that took 8–9 hours to compile key utility outage reports.

UMMC implemented e-Builder Enterprise—centralized document management, a mobile app for field surveys, and a reports module—streamlining data capture and notifications. The result: utility outage reporting dropped to 30 minutes, an automated audit trail and improved version control increased collaboration and communication, and project managers now spend less time on admin and more on site work, schedule and quality.
