Overview
J P Dunn Construction is a leading firm in the construction sector, and they have used our software for more than a decade.
The company first adopted Evolution, then moved to Evolution M, and these systems supported project management and financial reporting.
In 2024, Sami Ibrahim joined as Finance Director, bringing over 25 years of cross-industry experience.
Sami had used our software in a previous role, and he understood its full potential from the outset. He identified an opportunity to enhance current systems and led the upgrade to Evolution Mx.
Challenges
J P Dunn performed well with Evolution M. However, the business wanted to improve efficiency and insight.
Teams needed faster access to accurate, real-time data. Reporting processes relied heavily on manual input which slowed forecasting and profitability analysis.
Workflows across departments lacked full alignment, creating delays in communication and execution.
Solution
Sami led the move to Evolution Mx, and the upgrade unified key functions into one platform.
The system brought together project management, finance, and resource planning, which improved visibility across the business.
Real-time dashboards now show project costs, profitability, and cash flow, and teams can act quickly on live data.
Project tracking also improved. Teams can manage schedules, resources, and milestones in one place. Automated reporting reduced manual work – forecasting is now faster and more accurate.
Results
The upgrade delivered strong results across the business – financial control improved through real-time visibility. Teams now manage budgets more proactively, which supports better cost control across projects.
Centralised data reduced duplication and administrative workloads decreased as a result. Collaboration improved across finance, operations, and project teams, and workflows now support faster decisions.
Advanced analytics provide deeper insights, which allows leaders to plan resources and investments with greater confidence.
