Challange

‍

A prominent developer in Brisbane undertook a large-scale commercial project, a complex undertaking with ambitious timelines. However, they faced significant hurdles in managing their steel reinforcement processes, which threatened to derail the project's success. These challenges included:

• Discrepancies in Deliveries: Frequent mismatches between ordered and delivered steel reinforcement materials caused delays, rework, and budget overruns.
• Costly Duplications: A lack of systemised tracking led to instances where materials were ordered or installed twice, resulting in significant financial losses and wasted resources.
• Reactive Problem Solving: The project team struggled with late-stage identification of potential issues, such as design changes impacting material needs. This reactive approach led to expensive last-minute solutions and schedule disruptions.

The ClutchTrack Solution

ClutchTrack was implemented to provide a robust solution, empowering the project team to proactively manage issues and prevent errors. ClutchTrack's key functionalities proved instrumental:

• Real-Time Delivery Management via the Clutch App: ClutchTrack's mobile application enabled site teams to meticulously record deliveries, instantly flag missing items, and highlight any discrepancies directly from the field. This ensured accurate material receipt and streamlined the supply chain.   

• Automated Error Prevention: ClutchTrack's intelligent system automatically detected and flagged potential double-ups and duplicate claims for both supply and installation. This proactive approach eliminated wasted resources and prevented unnecessary costs.   

• Proactive Issue Identification with Instant Notifications: ClutchTrack provided timely notifications to key project stakeholders, alerting them to potential variances against the budget and proactively highlighting potential issues such as design changes before they impacted the project.

Results

‍

ClutchTrack's implementation delivered transformative results for the commercial development project:

• Drastically Reduced Delivery Errors: Real-time delivery tracking and discrepancy flagging minimised inaccuracies in material receipt, ensuring a reliable and efficient supply of steel reinforcement.
• Eliminated Costly Duplications: Automated flagging of duplicate claims prevented the wasteful expenditure of resources on redundant orders and installations.
• Proactive Issue Resolution: Instant notifications empowered the project team to address potential challenges, such as design changes, early in the construction process, mitigating their impact on the project's timeline and budget.
• On-Time, On-Budget Delivery: By minimising errors and proactively managing issues, ClutchTrack played a crucial role in ensuring the project was delivered successfully, on time and within budget.
