Prior to adopting Birdview, RBC Medical Innovations encountered several significant challenges in their project management processes. These challenges encompassed disjointed systems, inefficient time tracking, budget and deadline management issues, and user interface frustrations.
Lack of integrated time tracking and project management
Budget and deadline overruns
Inefficient time entry and reporting
RBC Medical Innovations chose Birdview as their project management solution for its unique ability to address their pressing challenges. Birdview seamlessly integrated time tracking and project management, simplifying workflow and improving user experience. In essence, Birdview PSA's tailored solutions, enhanced user interface, and comprehensive support made it the ideal choice for RBC's project management needs.
Birdview offers comprehensive project tracking capabilities, including building schedules, team assignments, and tracking hours. RBC utilizes this feature to manage their projects from planning to final delivery. They create schedules, assign teams, and monitor project progress, ensuring projects stay on track and within budget.
RBC generates various reports within Birdview to monitor project and time-related metrics. They use common reports provided by the system, such as person view and project view, to ensure compliance and track hours accurately. Additionally, they extract hours-based data to analyze key business metrics like utilization, helping them make informed decisions.
RBC faced challenges with its previous time reporting system, which was clunky and error-prone. Birdview provided a better user interface for their teams to report time efficiently and accurately. This feature allows them to track hours by project codes and personnel, ensuring they have precise data for project progress and invoicing.
RBC uses Birdview's notification and assignment features to efficiently manage team assignments, ensuring the right people are in the right place and reducing unnecessary clutter or noise.
One of the primary reasons RBC switched to Birdview was its integration of a work breakdown structure and project schedule with time reporting. This integration ensures that project schedules and time reporting are closely aligned, streamlining project management and resource allocation. Additionally, the tool's Vacation calendar and integration with project schedules enhanced communication and planning within the teams.
After switching to Birdview, RBC Medical Innovations achieved significant improvements across various key performance indicators (KPIs), resulting in enhanced efficiency and productivity. Notably, they reported substantial time savings, with a 75% reduction in the time required for project initiation, equating to 1 hour saved per project for the thousands of projects they manage. Project planning also saw gains, an 8% reduction in time entry during project execution streamlined their workflow.
Furthermore, RBC realized an 8% increase in work capacity per project, allowing for greater project load management. The financial aspect improved with a 20% increase in on-budget project completion and a 25% boost in on-schedule project completion. Employee stress levels decreased by 50%, attributed to improved time entry and overall project management efficiency. Leaders reported a 25% increase in productivity thanks to Birdview’s features, such as centralized project management and real-time visibility.
Quality control also saw progress, with a 15% reduction in project rework or defects. Notably, RBC experienced a 130% revenue increase since adopting Birdview in 2018, a testament to its positive financial impact.
Overall, RBC’s transition to Birdview brought about time savings, enhanced work capacity, improved project outcomes, reduced employee stress, increased leadership productivity, higher revenue generation, and additional collaborative tools for their teams. These achievements underscore the significant positive impact of Birdview on their operations and business performance.
