Case Study: NewFields achieves rapid profitability gains and trusted project insights with Unanet ERP AE

NewFields Leaves their Legacy ERP and Finds Greener – As In More Profitable – Pastures with Unanet’s Modern Solution

NewFields is a 350+ person global environmental, engineering and construction management consulting firm with 19 offices serving projects in 70 countries. When its CFO discovered an antiquated ERP system, the firm was weighed down by manual, error-prone processes—paper receipts, scanned invoices, and timesheet rework—that created data distrust, thousands of billing-related emails, overloaded accounting, poor adoption across offices, and missed insights into job profitability.

NewFields replaced its legacy system with Unanet ERP AE for its industry expertise, strong service, automation (payroll/invoicing), and integrations. The change eliminated much manual work, sped billing, boosted user adoption, and delivered quick ROI—one office saw quarterly profit more than double—while enabling real-time job costing, better decisions, easier scaling, faster client response, and a company-wide data-driven culture.
