70% reduction in manual data prep

Live cross-department dashboard with threshold alerts, replacing spreadsheet-and-email reporting across depots.

Large construction-supply group operating across multiple depots, with dispersed finance, logistics and project teams.

01 · Challenge

Where they started.

  • Deliveries, staff hours and purchase orders lived in separate spreadsheets and emails.

  • There was no consolidated view of project progress across depots.

  • Data lag between logistics, finance and project management caused rework and missed signals.

  • Every depot reported in a slightly different format.

02 · Solution

What Ordron shipped.

Ordron built a central visibility platform that unified the operating data the business already had.

  • Connected warehouse, time-tracking and ERP systems through APIs.
  • Built live dashboards displaying delivery status, labour hours and material costs.
  • Configured threshold alerts for abnormal material usage, without manual review.
  • Standardised the reporting format across every depot.
