2 KCS West | Using Real-Time Insights to Improve Cost Controls in Construction Management
KCS West, part of Kajima U.S.A. (KUSA), operates mainly in southern California and completed approximately $200 million in 2020 alone. The company started
using construction management software in the mid-1990s, but recently began looking for a more up-to-date option. "The older software didn't handle
drawing management well, which was always a challenge," says Dan Bentil, project manager at KCS West. "Ultimately we made the decision to update, so we
started looking around to see what was available."
Goal
KCS West, a construction firm
that completed approximately
$200 million in projects in 2020,
needed an all-in-one project
management software solution
that could support drawing
and document management,
project cost management, field
documentation, and more.
Challenge
They needed a customizable
solution to fit their unique needs.
Solution
ProjectSight provided a comprehensive,
centralized solution that could be
tailored to meet their needs.
Ongoing Benefits
With implementation of
ProjectSight, KCS West has
gained real-time insights that
help them improve information
flows across all aspects of a
construction project. The solution
also allows them to streamline
communication between
stakeholders and integrate the
software with their existing ERP
system. It standardized their
project level processes across all
projects and staff.
