Efficiently Updating Project Data in Mass
Engineering Smarter Decisions with Higher Quality Data
Case Study – Construction and Engineering
The More4apps ERP Cloud Toolbox empowered a leading engineering company to achieve the data accuracy needed to meet critical deadlines and optimize project quality and spending.
The Client
A turnkey engineering and construction provider serving electric, gas utility, and telecommunications companies across the United States.
The Challenge
The project finance team regularly needed to update thousands of items across hundreds of projects in Oracle Cloud ERP, resource assignments, budgets, task DFFs, costs, and more. FBDI and ADFdi didn’t support these fields, so the company tried offshore IT using APIs, which introduced time zone delays, unfamiliarity with the data, and frequent errors. Manual updates through Oracle forms one by one were equally slow and error-prone. The result: outdated project data and real risk of missed deadlines, overspending, and quality issues.
The Solution
After researching alternatives, the company implemented the More4apps ERP Cloud Toolbox Projects Module. Its Excel interface let the team mass-download project data, make bulk changes directly in the spreadsheet, and upload thousands of updated records at once, with the people who actually know the data doing the work.
The Result
Mass changes that once took days now take minutes or hours. The tool proved especially valuable during a company restructuring that required moving projects between divisions, and continues to streamline month-end contract adjustments and new billing control rollouts across hundreds of contracts simultaneously. With reliable, pre-validated data, the project finance team now makes faster, more confident decisions to support continued growth.
