Bruner Case Study

GoCanvas
GoCanvas

Bruner Corporation was facing productivity issues and delays in cash flow due to inefficient paper-based processes for work orders, inspections, and reporting that took up to 8 days. GoCanvas worked with Bruner to convert over 20 paper forms into mobile documents that technicians could complete and submit from job sites in real-time. This reduced Bruner's data collection and reporting process to 3 days, improved visibility into daily activity and productivity, increased accountability, and saved them over $6,000 annually in paper costs alone while cutting delivery discrepancies costs by $1,000-$12,000 per month.

Dan presented to GoCanvas over 20 different paper forms that they used for their contracting services on a weekly basis. This was at the core of their productivity issues, and GoCanvas worked with Dan to convert these forms into mobile documents that could be filled out on smart devices. The ability to fill out forms on their smart devices allowed the technicians to complete and submit forms right from the job site, leading to faster reporting and greater quality control. No longer was scanning, faxing, or printing a part of the process. As time rolled on, Dan and his team incorporated features such as Dispatch, Departments, and Folders which help with the overall organization of not just data, but of personnel and tasks. These features ensured that technicians always had the right form, for the right job, every time. Real-time Activity Tracking One of the advantages to using GoCanvas is the ability to assign tasks using Dispatch and view activity in real-time using the Dashboard. Dan Spurgeon commented, l like the Dashboard a lot. I can see how linear the activity is especially for the Daily Work Orders. If I see it spiking then I know they arent turning things in as they should be. The ability to see a snapshot of daily productivity has helped increase accountability and overall efficiency across the organization. Improved Workflow By completing all work orders and inspections on the GoCanvas mobile platform, Bruner has ensured that work is returned to the office as soon as it is completed. Their previous process took up to 8 business days and involved scanners, printers, and paper files. They have now reduced their entire data collection & reporting process to 3 business days, with all technician reports being turned in daily. This has significantly impacted their ROI and improved cash flow. In paper costs alone, Bruner is saving almost $6,000 annually. Increased Accountability Before GoCanvas, the delivery of parts and materials was a huge liability and expense. Now, Technicians are able to drop off an expensive part, capture a digital signature, collect a time-stamped GPS stamp, and even take a photo of the package at the delivery point. This has dramatically cut down on discrepancies with parts delivery, and Dan stated that it saves us on average between $1K to $12K per month. 62.5% The Problem The Strategy Productivity Hours Saved annually by eliminating paper Increase in Efficiency Since implementing GoCanvas Annual ROI Since Joining GoCanvas Issues with Cash Flow Bruner Corporation, Central Ohios #1 heating and cooling company, is a truly turnkey, full- service mechanical contractor.
