Case Study: Large Engineering Services Firm achieves doubled back-office productivity with Unanet

How a Large Engineering Services Firm Doubled Back Office Productivity with Unanet

A large engineering services firm was running a custom-built ERP that had become obsolete and could not scale with its growing complexity. The system relied on manual processes, offered limited reporting, lacked real-time data and integrations, and posed significant data migration and training challenges during a planned transition.

The firm moved to Unanet’s full financial platform (beyond time and expense), using features like a flexible ledger, cost pools, advanced reporting/analytics and multi-entity configuration, supported by a major data migration and training effort. The result: the company doubled its workforce without a proportional increase in back-office staff, gained faster, more informed decision-making through DataLake and custom reports, improved user satisfaction, and established an ongoing, collaborative partnership with Unanet.
