Shaub Construction

Ditching Spreadsheets for Automation

Before new leadership arrived in 2016, Shaub Construction managed multimillion-dollar projects without project management software, creating inefficiencies across subcontracts, budgeting, and preconstruction.
Founded in 1964, Shaub Construction is a Brentwood, Tennessee–based commercial contractor offering general contracting, construction management, and program management. Its portfolio spans medical and dental, office, retail, restaurant, banking, and shopping center projects.
Since new leadership took over in 2016, the company has modernized how it runs multimillion-dollar projects, replacing manual processes in subcontracting, budgeting, and preconstruction.
Shaub traded spreadsheets, manual budgets, and bid chaos for one system where everything lives.

The Challenge

When the new leadership team took the helm in 2016, they found that Shaub Construction was struggling with outdated and cumbersome processes. Subcontracts were managed in spreadsheets, budgets required extensive manual manipulation, and preconstruction was bogged down by the time-consuming task of collecting and analyzing multiple trade bids.
“Our contracts were out of control,” Project Manager, Hamilton Brooks recalled. “We didn’t have a sophisticated system in place. It made preconstruction a lot more difficult and inefficient.”
The lack of a streamlined system was not only time-consuming but also increased the risk of errors and miscommunications, hindering the company’s ability to deliver projects efficiently and effectively.
