Case Study: SJ Higgins achieves accurate, efficient and consistent project and cost management with Jobpac by Viewpoint

Efficiency, Accuracy And Consistency in Project and Cost Management is Crucial for any Construction Business

SJ Higgins, a leading Australian contractor with more than 2,000 projects and around $150M turnover, was struggling with an outdated cost-management system and spreadsheets. Locked commitments that couldn’t be revised, laborious manual cost reporting, paper-based invoices and duplicate claims forced time-consuming reconciliations, delayed month‑end reporting and put project margins and cash flow control at risk.

By implementing Jobpac by Viewpoint, SJ Higgins gained integrated job costing and accounting, digital invoice and claims workflows, and the ability to correct committed costs on the fly. The change improved forecasting and cash‑position visibility, eliminated paper shuffle, sped up month‑end reporting to within a week and delivered an estimated 80–90% efficiency gain in reporting and administration.
