Technology For Contractors

Just a few years ago simply having IT (Information Technology) systems may have given you a competitive advantage.

Today IT systems are required just to be in business - but strong IT systems can still be a phenomenal competitive advantage allowing you to streamline your operations, cut overhead costs and improve accuracy.

Making Complex Technology Function With Ease

I've worked with the owner of Span-The-WAN for over 7 years and have constantly been amazed at the ease which Chris Cooper makes complex technology function. 

Over that time we've worked together on countless technology projects geared at streamlining business processes, lowering costs and improving quality.

Operations + Technology = Better Profitability

By partnering together D. Brown Management and Span The WAN can tightly integrate the operations and IT systems for contractors. Benefits include:

• Improve the flow and timeliness of critical business information to help make better decisions
• Eliminate or reduce duplicate data entry
• Reduce downtime and non-productive time associated with technology
• Automation of manual tasks reducing or eliminating costs

Contractor Technology Audit & Analysis

Working together we have expanded on the Rapid Construction Company Analysis (RCCA) which already had a technology component and developed a structured audit and analysis program specifically geared towards contractors and their technology systems. 

The analysis will take a couple hours of your time and will cover the following areas. The summary report is focused on cost savings, streamlining, process improvements, risks and risk management. It will provide a solid roadmap for your technology system for the next 3-5 years.

• What are your total communication costs and can they be lowered?
• How well is technology currently integrated into your operations - accounting, job costing, production tracking, project management, project pre-planning, estimating, marketing?
• What are the costs/savings/risks/rewards of more integration?
• How scalable is your server/network architecture? Will it support your future growth?
• How efficiently can mobile workers access your IT resources?
• What is the general security status of your network?
• How is your data backed up?
• Are your employees trained properly to take full advantage of the technology they currently have?
