Construction
OnBase Construction Solutions help avoid the errors, delays and poor communication that lead to lost time and slim profit margins. To improve efficiency, accuracy and productivity from the time a prospective client or buyer is registered through post-closing customer service. OnBase can integrate with existing line-of-business applications currently in use.
OnBase allows you to build an electronic repository for all the information you need to complete a job and run a business, regardless of location. Instead of searching filing cabinets, fax machines, e-mail servers, lengthy paper reports, CAD applications and desktop hard drives for information, it can all be centralised in a single source and retrieved with a few keystrokes. Documents in OnBase can be printed, faxed, e-mailed or published to a CD/DVD to improve communication with customers, vendors and partners. Unlike paper files, documents and reports stored in OnBase can also be backed up to disks or tape drives to support disaster recovery.
OnBase reduces labor and improves accountability by standardising and automating accounting/back office, sales, production management, purchasing, customer service, estimating and land development processes. Builders who implement OnBase can
- Reduce liability by communicating appropriate installation procedures, change orders and other data
- Ensure timely payment to subcontractors and suppliers
- Improve communication with customers, vendors and co-workers to prevent errors or oversights
- Validate vendor contracts and proof of insurance, reducing liability
- Automate processes that divert labor and resources from higher value tasks
- Protect business-critical documents
- Avoid costly delays due to miscommunication or missing documentation
