Leading Provider of Business-Class Cellular Management Services and Software Enables Construction Companies to Reduce Costs and Increase Productivity
SAN FRANCISCO, June 30, 2009 — eMOBUS, a leading vendor of mobility management services and software, today announced the latest construction companies to choose Electronic Mobility Management for expense management, inventory tracking, and cost allocation. BCCI Builders, Sukut Construction and XL Construction are the latest general contracting firms to reduce costs and increase productivity by utilizing eMOBUS' platform. They join a long list of diverse Architecture, Engineering, and Construction companies to deploy eMOBUS' array of business-class services. Electronic Mobility Management allows these companies to reduce direct carrier billing costs, lessen the amount of internal resources dedicated to cellular management, and improve visibility of out-of-policy cellular usage.
The announced new customer wins include:
BCCI Builders (http://www.bcciconst.com/) – BCCI is a full-service construction company, privately owned since 1986, with offices in San Francisco and Palo Alto. BCCI offers full construction services including new building, structural renovation, historic restoration, seismic upgrades, commercial interiors, pre-construction services, sustainable construction and LEED management. Customers value BCCI's ability to serve as collaborator and confidant, rather than just another vendor or building contractor. The company has been awarded "Best Places to Work" by the San Francisco Business Times and San Jose Business Journal four years running and ranked in the top 25 largest commercial contractors in the Bay Area.
BCCI chose eMOBUS for its time-saving capabilities and powerful reporting functionality. "eMOBUS is an extremely professional and flexible group of people. They not only slashed our monthly service costs by 27%, they eliminated the need to hire a full-time mobility manager," claims Ken Chua, IT Director. "eMOBUS provides the service we need to streamline our cellular management processes," said Chua. "The deployment was painless, and we were instantly able to see savings within 60 days."
Sukut Construction ) – Sukut Construction, based in Santa Ana, CA, is the state's largest earthmover and is ranked by Engineering News-Record magazine amongst the Top 200 Environmental Firms in the nation. The company's commitment to the environment is evident in its recent overhaul installation of computerized electronic engines that cut emissions by half in their fleet of scrapers, dozers, motor graders, rock trucks and excavators.
Since 2006 the Orange County Business Journal has ranked Sukut Construction as one of the 100 Fastest-Growing Businesses. As Sukut's operations grew, they needed solutions that would allow them to offload non-mission critical aspects of the business. Cellular management was basically a thorn in the side for the company's IT and Safety & Dispatch departments. "Since our implementation of Electronic Mobility Management, we have experienced a significant return on investment," said Mike Zanaboni – President. "A very low total cost of ownership combined with an easy-to-use application made eMOBUS a risk-free choice."
XL Construction (http://www.xlconstruction.com/) – Based in Milpitas, CA, XL Construction is accredited with LEED Silver Certification. Engineering News-Record magazine ranks XL Construction among the Top 400 General Contractors and Top 100 Green Contractors in the nation. XL's Customer base consists of the Bay Area's leading Biopharmaceutical, Healthcare, Advanced Technology, and Education organizations. A survey by the San Francisco Business Times and San Jose Business Journal, rank XL Construction as one of the "Best Places to Work in the Bay Area."
Due to geographic coverage of project work, XL Construction was forced to engage three cellular providers: AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon. The company needed a solution to centralize multiple systems and processes through a single web-based relationship. They chose eMOBUS because of its business-class service and leading-edge software solution for reporting and customization capabilities.
"eMOBUS has played a key part in helping us reduce costs and increase efficiency, especially in these economic conditions. We appreciate the vendor agnostic approach along with the ability to have a real-time view of the organizations cellular infrastructure," said Jerry Harmon, Vice President of Human Resources. "The implementation was quick and smooth, as our staff was able to start using the system within two weeks, with minimal training and support. As we rolled out the system, eMOBUS services and support stood ready to jump in to help when needed."
