Construction Project Management for Architecture, Engineering and Construction
Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) Sector
Meridian Systems provides construction project management and Infrastructure Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions for companies in the AEC sector, including:
- General Contractors/Construction Managers
- Subcontractors
- Program Management/Design Build/EPC Firms
Infrastructure-intensive industries rely on engineering and construction firms to successfully deliver capital projects. Today’s engineering and construction firms provide daily planning, design, engineering, procurement and construction services on a wide range infrastructure projects. Program management firms also must provide top notch service to their building owner clients by controlling project costs and schedules, managing design deliverables and approvals, and communicating real-time project performance.
Managing project scope, budgets and schedules effectively is paramount to the success or failure of these service-oriented businesses. Meridian offers construction project management and Infrastructure Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions to help you succeed.
What Customers Are Saying
-

In 2004 our work volume was about $420M and 2008 is projected to be closer to $800M. With help from Prolog, we’re on track to nearly double our volume in just four years – and we’re operating with roughly the same number of project management support staff! 
Frank Carlson, Director of Business Applications
Adolfson & Peterson Construction

-
Prolog WebSite drastically shortens the RFI process by making it possible to complete an RFI in a number of hours instead of a couple of days. 
Brooks Williams, Director of Project Controls
Alberici Corporation

-

The Wilpinjong project was a prime example of us utilizing Prolog for the final retrieval of money for work changes. The client had basically forgotten about a number of changes that they had authorized, but we had every field directive documented. Prolog allowed us to quickly resolve the dispute to everyone’s satisfaction and collect the additional AUD $2M in charges. 
Chris Frost, Sales & Marketing Manager
H&M Engineering and Construction

-

Prolog has increased our profit margins on projects by at least five to seven percent – if not 10 percent. That’s a great return on investment. 
Julio Sepulveda, International Projects Director
Design Built Management

-

ProjectTalk helps Haskell deliver a superior product through better management of quality issues. Instead of repeating the mistakes made on previous projects, this data helps us understand how to prevent them and what areas need extra vigilance to meet our high standards for quality. 
Susan McDowell, Manager – ConstructionTechnology Application
The Haskell Company

-

Our lean modular construction process is what allows our revenues to grow and Prolog has become an ingrained part of that lean culture. I don’t think that we would have been able to grow our revenue base by 166 percent in one year without Prolog! 
Amy Kulka-Marks, Executive Vice President of Operations
Kullman Buildings Corp.

-

By e-mailing correspondence like submittals, requests for information and potential change orders directly out of Prolog, we’ve increased the productivity of each person. If you figure in our billable rates by the hour, we are saving approximately $1000 per team per month on this one task. That’s a substantial cost savings at the completion of the project. 
-

With Prolog, we were able to save our client approximately $500K by reducing the cost for change orders. I can’t imagine being able to do that with any other program. 
Lisa Landis, Marketing Coordinator
Swinerton Management & Consulting

-

The standardized format and centralized data repository of information within Prolog increased our productivity by 10-20 percent compared to our previous methods of project management. 
Brian Makowski, Director of Engineering
Torcon, Inc.

-

Throughout the job, every piece of project information is being carefully tucked away. At the end of the job, if there is a document request from an owner, a warranty issue or a potential litigation situation, we have all of our documents in one secure, searchable location.

The Weitz Company

-

By standardizing on Prolog software, we have the ability to quickly access project information to make more effective decisions. This visibility reduces the risk of cost overruns and demonstrates to our clients that we’re on top of things. 
-

Having Prolog has significantly increased our business efficiencies. We now have a centralized project data repository and a single database for project information. Prolog has unified our resources and allows us to be consistent with our project management processes. This greatly benefits CWCI. 
Peter Davidson, Project Manager
Coakley & Williams

-

By standardizing our project management, Costanza Builders personnel are more productive, which contributes to revenue growth. The outcome is more effective project management. Now our managers are using their time to manage projects rather than look for missing pieces of information. By using Prolog, we can handle more with less effort. 
Nancy Gendron, Operations Manager
Costanza Builders
-

By standardizing on Prolog software, we have been able to manage jobs more efficiently and spend more time on actual construction. Prolog positively affects company growth and sales. 
Julie Meeker, Project Engineer
Hunt Construction Group

-

Prolog has delivered improved data intelligence and better productivity, which has helped push revenues ahead of quarterly projections for 2006. By standardizing on Prolog, we have been able to increase our revenue without increasing support staff. 
John Breidenbach, Information System Manager
Roebbelen Contracting, Inc.

-

There is a significant advantage to using the industry leading project management system. We can go to an owner and explain why our standardization on Prolog is of benefit to them. Prolog allows us to build better, faster and cheaper. 
Mark Federle, CIO
The Weitz Company

-

By standardizing on Prolog software, we have achieved a level of professionalism that is vital to the WPC brand. Everyone understands that we need to do things a certain way at a certain time and that instills quality all the way down the line – from our office and field staff to our subcontractors. 
Kathy Williams, Prolog Administrator
Winter Park Construction
-

Over the last 10 years, we have grown our revenues almost 600 percent and we continue to grow at an average rate of 20-25 percent each year. Prolog contributes to that growth by reducing our operating costs through increased efficiencies. At this point, it’s hard for us to imagine working without it.
