  1. Overcoming Challenges In The Construction Business Using Custom ERP

  2. The construction industry faces a number of challenges on a regular basis owing to a complex network of workforce activities. Most of these challenges are inevitable, irrespective of the size of a construction business. That said, we can only take steps to mollify them rather than eradicating the possibility of facing such roadblocks. Moreover, the construction industry has become increasingly complex and customer-centric, thereby imposing immense strain on the workforce. It is, therefore, essential that we have a centrally managed ERP system in place to efficiently run routine operations with minimal complexities. In this blog post, we shed light on the most common challenges faced by businesses in the construction and real estate industries. Subsequently, we shall discover the benefits of custom ERP for construction businesses and how it helps overcome potential challenges.

  3. Top Challenges Prevalent In Construction Business Given below are some common challenges faced by companies in the construction business. At the same time, we explain how implementing custom ERP for construction management can help overcome these challenges. #1 Lack of Effective Planning Building public/private and commercial infrastructure requires unabridged planning and effective execution of planned tasks. Understandably, the more time and effort you put into planning, the better will be the execution of tasks. Nevertheless, many construction companies generally fail to give ample time and effort in project planning. Moreover, they brush aside from using business intelligence tools that may help them plan things better with intelligent business forecasts. In dearth of an effective project plan, businesses are more likely to fail and face a number of challenges and roadblocks throughout the project completion lifecycle. ERP software implementation renders ample support for construction planning through a series of modules and applications that are focused on project planning and execution. Besides, it gives access to advanced analytics and reporting capabilities to help businesses gain valuable insights into their day-to-day operations.

  4. #2 Communication Gap The communication gap is yet another challenge that most construction companies face while managing their workforce and on-site activities all along. Besides, many companies have inadequate means for data sharing which often causes hindrance in efficiently running their routine operations. The lack of communication may lead to several problems like unwanted project delays and faulty execution of tasks which may add up to whopping losses. Custom ERP development bridges the gap between project planning and execution of tasks by virtue of business communication modules. It helps design and develop a custom messaging and business communication app with features like voice/video calling, chat support, multimedia options, video conferencing, and more.

  5. #3 Ineffective Decision-Making Ineffective decision-making is a major concern for most businesses as it may cause whopping losses and irreversible damage to the company’s reputation. There are innumerable examples of how a futile business decision proved disastrous for a construction company where some decisions even caused permanent closure or cessation of the company. Custom ERP for construction companies provides access to several BI tools that are conducive to predicting future outcomes by virtue of advanced algorithms for accurate business forecasting. As a result, it helps take smart business decisions with calculated risk to prevent losses and maximize profit margins. #4 Productivity Loss Project delays and productivity issues are quite common in the construction business that may be the result of ineffective workforce management. Nevertheless, these issues may have a major impact on the overall business performance and profitability. Besides, productivity losses are majorly responsible for depleting or dwindling profit margins and may yield reduced ROI. Evidently, the use of a robust ERP system enables construction companies to steer clear of productivity issues by streamlining complex business processes. At the same time, it helps make their enterprise systems future-ready and build more resilience for the future.
