Morgan Sindall - Grontmij Joint Venture

The Company

Morgan Sindall is organised through five businesses of Infrastructure, Tunnelling, Construction, Utility Services and Design.

Morgan Sindall deliver public and private sector projects and frameworks from £50,000 to more than £1 billion.

They have been appointed on some of the UK’s most complex construction and engineering schemes, where they provide tunnelling, utilities, building and civil engineering expertise.

The Requirement

Morgan Sindall and Grontmij as part of a joint venture had secured a contract to provide services for Yorkshire Water.

This resulted in Morgan Sindall working on several contracts across the country and providing plant and machinery as required. This involved a significant number of items and Morgan Sindall needed an accurate and efficient means to manage the system.

The Solution

Due to the scale of the operation, spreadsheet based systems had proved ineffective and Joyce Software were approached to provide a bespoke database design.

Joyce Software worked closely with the surveying and financial teams and were able to produce a system that exceeded the requirements of Morgan Sindall. The system included powerful timesheet features as well as incorporating elements of the Plant Manager system.

“Joyce Software worked closely with the surveying and financial teams and were able to produce a system that exceeded the requirements of Morgan Sindall.”

“I approached Joyce Software after discovering their Plant Manager software and asked them to produce a bespoke plant management system which would be used to manage our plant and machinery usage across the country for a specified contract. Joyce Software were able to produce a system that exceeded all expectations.”
