Heavy civil contractors Bituminous Roadways,
Gulf Operators and Sherwood Companies achieve ROI and performance
improvements through their use of B2W Software
WESTMINSTER, Colo., May 7, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) today announced the winners
of the 2024 B2W Customer Innovation Awards for North American heavy
civil contractors. Bituminous Roadways, Gulf Operators and Sherwood
Companies are recognized for their Return on Investment (ROI)
results using individual B2W applications and the unified B2W
platform.
A panel of B2W judges selects the Customer Innovation Awards
program winners from applications submitted by contractors using
B2W software for estimating, field tracking, scheduling and fleet
maintenance. B2W launched the program in 2017 and 27 companies have
been recognized to date.
Bituminous Roadways: Best ROI with the B2W
Platform
"The B2W platform represents a strategic and
transformative approach to project management and business
operations," said Kim Scales, IS
technology manager at Bituminous Roadways. The Minnesota-based asphalt paving and heavy
construction company was recognized for its integration of B2W
applications across its estimating and operations workflows.
Bituminous added B2W Estimate and Track followed by the B2W
Schedule, Inform and Maintain applications. The platform also
creates a streamlined workflow between B2W and the Viewpoint®
Spectrum® construction ERP solution from Trimble to eliminate the
need for multiple data entries and redundant steps.
"B2W has delivered quantified benefits including operational
efficiencies within workflows, streamlined transferring of data
between workflows, and the automation and enhancement of data
collection and reporting," Scales added.
Gulf Operators: Best ROI with a Single B2W
Application
Replacing spreadsheets, text documents and
handwritten notes with B2W Track enabled Gulf Operators to
standardize and streamline field data capture and get more accurate
data back to the office.
Michael Day, estimating manager
at Gulf Operators, said, "Better, daily visibility of project
performance versus targets helps supervisors make better decisions
to solve issues and reduce cost" for the civil construction and
aggregate supply company based in Saint
John, New Brunswick, Canada. "Being able to see and set
performance targets and monitor performance against them also
motivates project teams to beat them."
Sherwood Companies: Most Innovative Use of B2W
Software
Sherwood Companies extended its adoption of B2W
Track to a business unit that has highly specific reporting
requirements — mandated by municipalities — for tracking
maintenance on traffic systems. Based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Sherwood provides a wide
range of civil construction services throughout the Midwest.
Leveraging the versatility of B2W Track, the company was able to
customize field logs and its reporting of data generated by those
logs. "We can now cover all of the data of our previously outdated
system, but with several key advantages," said Seth Belt, accounting business analyst at
Sherwood Companies. "Users that previously had to log in one at a
time in an actual office now complete field reports concurrently
and remotely, saving several hours every week. B2W field reporting
also eliminated double entry for labor hours, provided an easier
way for management to review time and view field logs, and allowed
us to know with confidence that we are capturing and billing all
costs incurred by this business unit."
