Building Efficiency: DPR Construction’s Operational Overhaul with CMiC ERP

Introduction

DPR Construction is known for its excellence in delivering complex and technically demanding projects across sectors like healthcare, life sciences, and advanced technology. However, the rapid growth and increased complexity of their portfolio revealed operational inefficiencies that hindered productivity and collaboration. Faced with challenges in financial processes and data management, DPR partnered with CMiC to implement a tailored ERP solution. This partnership transformed DPR’s workflows and set a new standard for efficiency and scalability.

The Roadblocks to Progress

As DPR expanded, they faced several critical challenges:

• Manual Workflows: Payroll and invoicing processes were labor-intensive and error-prone, delaying operations and affecting cash flow.
• Data Visibility Issues: Leadership lacked access to real-time data, limiting their ability to anticipate and address project challenges.
• Inflexible Technology: Legacy systems couldn’t keep up with the demands of DPR’s growing portfolio of complex projects.

These challenges made it clear that DPR needed an integrated solution to streamline their operations and maintain their industry leadership.
