0915 Copyright © B2W Software Inc. 1993-2015 All Rights Reserved Success with B2W Estimate generated interest in linking estimating and bidding with fi eld tracking. "B2W Track has paid for itself many times over on the DOT jobs by giving us instant feedback from our fi eld forces by early the next morning on the previous day's progress so we can get properly reimbursed, and that is just one small feature of the program," says Ehling. "We put 25 iPads in the fi eld right away, we're constantly using more and more of the features and we still feel like we're only scratching the surface of how we can use the software to streamline fi eld tracking processes and improve analysis." With B2W solutions for estimating and fi eld tracking in place, executives became more aware of the liabilities of continuing to manage equipment maintenance and repairs with spreadsheets and added B2W Maintain. Information on equipment and labor were already entered and accessible in a unifi ed B2W operational database established for Track, so the implementation was smooth and collaboration across the two elements was ensured. Ehling says the specialized maintenance management program has streamlined work order processes. "To say I was surprised at how quickly and enthusiastically our team embraced the B2W systems is a huge understatement," Ehling says. "I was truly amazed, and I attribute it to the ease of use and the immediate impact in terms of making it easier for them to do their jobs." James D. Morrissey has also realized benefi ts beyond the individual features of each B2W application. "We've discovered with Estimate, Track and Maintain that there is now so much data available to us and so many ways to use that data to operate more effi ciently and more profi tably," Ehling says. Support "Never in 25 years in construction have I dealt with a company like B2W," Ehling says. "Every single employee – and I've met many of them – is pleasant, and we always get an answer instead of an excuse." "Like its software, the staff at B2W makes my life easier and makes our team more effective," he concludes. "We gain the operational and strategic advantages provided by the software without getting bogged down in the challenges of making the software work."
