CASE STUDY
Contractor cuts admin time by 60% and accelerates project delivery with workflow automation
Commercial construction contractor
Field and office processes unified
+25% project volume YoY without expanding headcount

A mid-sized construction firm specializing in commercial and mixed-use developments across Australia. As the business scaled, internal inefficiencies began to impact delivery timelines, bid capacity, and overall profitability.
Project delays and compliance risks were mounting due to manual workflows and disjointed communication. Field teams were still reliant on paper forms, and approvals often sat idle in inboxes. Errors and delays in permits, inspections, or procurement frequently led to budget overruns and deadline extensions.
Holistc™ designed and deployed a unified workflow platform that connected job sites to head office in real time. Key processes like approvals, document generation, and field reporting were digitized and automated — reducing admin time by over half and enabling faster, more reliable project execution.
Site managers were overwhelmed by a constant stream of paper forms, email approvals, and status updates that had to be manually fed into various systems. Change orders were frequently delayed due to unclear approval paths. Inventory issues weren’t caught early. Critical tasks like safety checks or permit filings were easy to miss, especially across multiple projects.
The firm recognized it needed more than new software — it needed a connected operational layer that removed bottlenecks across departments and project stages.
The Holistc™ Solution
We deployed a connected workflow system that synced field ops with office execution in real time. What used to be dozens of back-and-forth steps became a smooth, orchestrated pipeline.
