Pioneer Telephone
Our primary goal was to automate a manual system that allowed remote field techs, managers, and contractors to access a central database for real-time updates. Project Insight was the only solution that offered a mobile website to facilitate this.

Challenges
  • Lacked a central repository for effective project tracking
  • No way to track resource allocation
  • Lacked an automated system for real-time updates

The Pioneer Story

Pioneer’s operations were difficult to manage due to disconnected, manual processes. Project updates came from paper notebooks, spreadsheets, handwritten notes, and conference calls. Field reps made updates when they could, but nothing was centralized or trackable in real-time.

Why Project Insight?

Pioneer evaluated at least six products, but none met their mobile, real-time requirements—until they discovered Project Insight.
  • Mobile-friendly platform for remote access
  • Centralized data with real-time updates
  • Full feature set, unlike other solutions tested
  • Scalable to grow with Pioneer’s needs

The Results

  • Transitioned from a manual to an automated system
  • Improved project scheduling and resource allocation
  • Increased team productivity and transparency
  • Gave managers real-time insight and control
