Summary: Hoar Construction faced significant challenges in streamlining the setup, connection and governance of their projects and required platforms (Procore and Microsoft 365) as well as keeping those platforms in sync. Recognizing the need for a more efficient solution, they turned to ProjectReady. This case study explores how ProjectReady enabled them to simplify information management, enhance efficiency, and deliver measurable ROI for their company.
The Challenges in Managing Multiple Platforms
Hoar Construction has two primary Common Data Environments (CDE) they use on projects – Procore and Microsoft 365 (M365) which includes SharePoint, Outlook and Teams. Administrative and non-build specific documents are created and stored in SharePoint, while construction documents live inside Procore. Access to specific libraries in SharePoint needs to be securely governed, and documents in both systems need to be easily located and accessed – in the single context of the project.
