Digitizing Construction Project Delivery for a Leading Contractor in London (UK)
How INVASSO built a unified platform to manage projects from A to Z, with full cost control, scheduling, and milestone visibility.
Executive Summary
A leading construction firm in London partnered with INVASSO to replace fragmented spreadsheets, manual workflows, and inconsistent reporting with a fully integrated construction management platform.
The system manages the entire lifecycle of a construction project — from initial planning and budgeting to execution, delivery, and financial reconciliation.
It gives managers real-time clarity across phases, costs, teams, vendors, and milestones.
The result: fewer delays, stronger cost control, and operational visibility across every active project.
Context & Industry Stakes
Construction companies operate under constant pressure:
Tight deadlines
High financial exposure
Multi-phase dependencies
Frequent change orders
Large teams across job sites
Subcontractor coordination
Strict client expectations
Safety risks and compliance
Before modernization, the company struggled with:
Delayed updates from job sites
Inconsistent cost tracking
Limited visibility across projects
Manual communication between teams
Poor forecasting accuracy
Difficulty monitoring milestones and deliveries
For a contractor managing multi-million-dollar projects, these issues created financial risk, operational inefficiency, and leadership blind spots.
The Challenge
Fragmented Tools Across Project Phases
Planning, budgeting, tracking, and reporting were disconnected, leading to delays and misalignment.
No Unified Cost Control
Actual vs. budgeted cost tracking required manual consolidation, causing inaccuracies and late reporting.
Slow Communication Between Job Sites & Office Teams
Critical updates weren't available in real time.
Limited Delivery & Milestone Monitoring
Executives lacked a clear, consolidated view of project health.
Vendor & Subcontractor Coordination
Managing subcontractor progress and payments required multiple manual steps.
Inconsistent Field Data Collection
Job site updates, photos, and inspections were recorded manually or shared across different tools, leading to gaps in documentation and delayed decision-making.
Why the Organization Chose INVASSO
Expertise in Workflow-Oriented SaaS Platforms
The platform required deep knowledge of complex, multi-phase operations.
Ability to Engineer End-to-End Operational Systems
From budgeting to delivery tracking, every step needed to live in one ecosystem.
Stability, Scalability & Long-Term Reliability
Construction timelines span months or years — the platform needed long-term durability.
Transformation Strategy — A Unified Construction Management System
INVASSO designed a platform that brings all project data, workflows, and cost structures into one controlled environment, including:
Full Project Lifecycle Management - Track every phase: planning → foundation → structure → finishing → handover.
Cost & Budget Control - Monitor budget vs. actual, track expenses, assign cost codes, and generate real-time variance reports.
Delivery & Milestone Management - Manage deadlines, dependencies, approvals, and phase completions with full visibility.
Worker & Team Coordination - Assign tasks, monitor progress, and view updates from multiple job sites.
Vendor / Subcontractor Management - Track deliverables, invoices, and payment progress.
Real-Time Dashboards - Instant visibility into project health, cost performance, and risk indicators.
Document Management - Store drawings, permits, site photos, reports, and revisions.
This ecosystem eliminated manual overhead and turned construction workflows into data-driven operations.
