Case Study: The Howard Hughes Corporation achieves streamlined, integrated construction workflows with Trimble e-Builder Enterprise

The Howard Hughes Corporation Collaborative Software Garners Big Successes for Leading National Developer

The Howard Hughes Corporation (a Trimble company) is a Dallas‑based developer and operator of master‑planned communities and commercial properties across 16 states. Facing undocumented paper and email chains, repetitive data entry, and no single cloud platform for bidding, RFIs, document storage and invoicing, the company needed a customizable, integrated solution that could also connect to its J.D. Edwards accounting system.

Howard Hughes implemented e-Builder Enterprise to create a single, traceable workflow linking RFIs, change orders and payments with their accounting system, automated processes, and mandatory use across more than 850 users. The result: centralized document storage with version control, elimination of undocumented email chatter, reduced duplicate data entry, an auditable project trail, and improved collaboration and efficiency across projects.
