Modern Environments Replaces Procore with WorkflowMAX
How an Auckland landscape contractor swapped an oversized platform for a practical system that captures the data they need for better reporting.
Modern Environments is an Auckland landscape contracting company specialising in large-scale outdoor construction, ecological restoration, landscape maintenance and public space development. With a team of more than 20 staff, it delivers projects across schools, parks, wetlands, playgrounds, commercial sites and streetscapes, often combining landscaping with civil works, drainage, planting and retaining structures.
The company had been using Procore, a platform built for much larger organisations. It offered far more than the business needed, and getting simple, timely information out of it took more time than the team had available resulting in the system not being utilised to its potential.
Our Approach: Testing WorkflowMAX Against Real Scenarios
They needed a system that was practical to use day to day and could grow with the business.
ConTech Solutions spent time upfront understanding how Modern Environments operates, then built real-world scenarios in WorkflowMAX to test it against the company's daily processes and reporting.
Once the fit was confirmed, ConTech worked through configuration, data migration, workflow setup and training, keeping communication open and sorting out issues quickly.
Why Modern Environments Chose WorkflowMax
WorkflowMAX was chosen because it was cost-effective and gives the company room to grow. Just as important, it is simple enough for the whole team to use, which means the data needed for good reporting is actually being captured.
The bigger payoff will come from better decisions, such as understanding where jobs make and lose money, and from new functionality as WorkflowMAX develops.
Modern Environments is now building toward clearer project visibility, faster quoting and job set-up, better cost tracking, and more insight into profitability at job and phase level.
“ConTech Solutions worked patiently alongside us during the extended evaluation stage. Once we decided to proceed, setup, data transfer and training were fitted around our very busy schedule. Communication was open and honest throughout, and urgent help was always a phone call away. We’re still refining how we use WorkflowMAX as our processes mature, but we now have a system we actually use.”
