Skender Construction is a busy Chicago-based general
contractor, generating $350 million worth of work each
year. Clearly the company is doing something right. In fact,
it’s doing many things right. The contractor has won an
impressive list of awards, including Contractor of the Year
and Interior Contractor of Year. But perhaps the awards
that best represent Skender Construction are those that
speak to the company’s core values—Best Places to Work
in Illinois, Community Service Award, and Family Business
of the Year. The construction management software that
has been at the foundation of Skender Construction for
decades is Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate and
Sage Estimating.
“Our employees are the number one reason we are where
we are today,” says Jerry Ball, Skender’s CFO. “Sage 300
Construction allows us to focus on the things that really are
important—our culture, our employees, and our clients. It is
a great tool to run our jobs and our payroll processing much
more efficiently.”
Flexible, scalable technology
When the company first implemented Sage 300
Construction back in 1988, the CEO understood that in order
to grow the company from its current $1 million in revenues,
it would need to invest in a scalable business management
solution that could grow and expand with the company.
“We selected Sage 300 Construction because of its flexibility
and scalability, and for the breadth of functionality it offers,”
says Ball. “We use multiple aspects of the software, including
job costing, project management, financial reporting,
mobility tools, and Sage Estimating.”
