Manage Multiple Sites

01 Jan 2020 Editorial Team

New features in Astral Technologies’ Construction ERP are aimed at streamlining site-level activities, vital for companies managing multiple sites. For instance, “GPS-based attendance tracking helps construction companies track the headcount on multiple sites on a real-time basis,” says Deepen Goratela, Founder, Astral Technologies. “Incorporating this feature in a mobile app makes it handy for those on site. They check in on arrival and check out at the end of their shift.”

Managing multiple sites was a key challenge for ACE Project Management Consultant. The company needed a solution to draw up estimates, plan the use of resources, analyse budgets, schedule work and generate daily progress reports to track the live status of projects.

Astral’s solution made all this possible and compared the planned and actual progress of projects. Currently, ACE Project Management Consultant is managing 15 sites across India. With Astral’s solution, it stays connected to each site and to its customers in terms of approvals.
