Operations managers in building restoration and conservation often oversee multiple sites, teams, and resources at once. As a result, maintaining accurate records and visibility across projects with a digital site diary becomes essential.
To learn more about the benefits of digital reporting, Shane Uppal spoke with Ivan Farrugia from Vaults Co Ltd, a specialist Building Restoration and Conservation company. During the conversation, Ivan shared how his team uses a digital Site Diary to manage projects more efficiently.
Managing Multiple Sites and Resources More Effectively
As Operations Manager at Vaults Co Ltd, Ivan is responsible for assigning resources to different job sites and visiting projects regularly.
He explained that his day consisted of “Assigning resources to different job sites and trying to visit each site on a daily basis.”
Because of these responsibilities, the company needed a reliable way to track site activity, monitor progress, and share information between team members.
Vaults Co Ltd has successfully used Site Diary on every project undertaken by the company since 2016, covering approximately 42 projects.
