Construction companies frequently face significant operational challenges with their HR and payroll processes that can drain resources and productivity. For example,
When employees must enter the same information multiple times in different systems, it creates unnecessary work, possible errors and frustration. Many construction companies find themselves running payroll twice -once in their HR system and again in their ERP system – creating inefficiencies that impact the entire organization.
When construction companies implement truly integrated HR and ERP solutions, they can transform their operational efficiency.
A genuine integration between HR and ERP systems dramatically reduces manual processes and duplicate work. Instead of entering employee information multiple times across different platforms, data flows automatically between systems. This creates a clear division of data management: employee-specific information goes into the HR system, while project and payroll data flows into the ERP system, with automatic synchronization between the two.
This clear delineation eliminates confusion about where data should be entered and maintained, creating a more streamlined workflow and freeing up valuable staff time.
Advanced analytics and reporting features transform how construction companies access and utilize their data. With truly integrated systems, generating reports becomes simpler and more reliable. Companies gain a single source of truth for their data, making it easier to:
When HR and ERP systems work together, the reporting capabilities become more powerful than either system could offer independently.
One of the most valuable aspects of proper integration is that it empowers HR teams to take ownership of critical processes without requiring constant IT support. HR professionals can manage employee data, run payroll and handle benefits administration from a unified platform, giving them greater autonomy and control.
This empowerment extends to strategic initiatives as well. When HR teams spend less time on manual data entry and troubleshooting disconnected systems, they can focus more on talent management, employee engagement and other high-value activities.
Implementing integrated systems doesn’t have to be disruptive. Smart HR and ERP integrations are designed with user experience in mind, featuring intuitive interfaces that require minimal training for staff adoption.
The most effective implementations include:
When employees find new systems easy to use, adoption rates increase, and the organization realizes the benefits of integration more quickly.
The partnership between Arcoro and CMiC represents a commitment to providing construction companies with truly integrated solutions that streamline operations and boost efficiency. The recently enhanced integration offers even more capabilities including:
BNBuilders, a leading general contractor headquartered in Seattle with more than 1,000 employees across multiple offices throughout California and Denver, experienced the transformative impact of this integration firsthand.
The company benefited from the true connection between Arcoro and CMiC, allowing them to reduce data entry, including having to do payroll twice. I also offered one system of record while providing comprehensive data analytics.
The company’s HR team now manages the synchronization process independently, without requiring IT support. Plus, Arcoro’s responsive and collaborate customer acted like a true partner to BNBuilders, helping them to optimize workforce operations.
As construction companies continue to grow and face increasingly complex workforce management challenges, integrated systems that eliminate duplicate work and create clear data management processes are essential for maintaining operational efficiency.
