THE OPERATING CHALLENGE
The client's project managers spent 10-12 hours every week compiling status reports from 4 different systems. Reports were consistently late, contained copy-paste errors, and consumed the most experienced PMs who should have been managing risk instead of formatting tables.
WHAT KRESTO IMPLEMENTED
Kresto deployed a three-phase automation: (1) data extraction layer pulling live data from Procore and SharePoint APIs, (2) AI-powered narrative generation that converts raw metrics into readable project commentary, (3) automated distribution via email and dashboard. Built in 6 weeks with zero disruption.
VERIFIED OUTCOME
Weekly reporting time dropped from 12 hours to under 2 hours per PM. Report accuracy improved from 85% to 99%+. The 3 senior PMs recovered 30 hours/week collectively. The client estimated $180,000 annual savings across the team.
