Customer experience

"In less than five weeks, we had to remove the dry screening equipment, demolish several floors of concrete, establish a lift well, install new structural steel, install three bucket elevators, several screens, and all the interconnecting drag conveyors and chutework. All this work had to take place…as scheduled…to avoid losses in the order of magnitude of millions of dollars per day in lost revenues for the owner. As the site engineer and owner's representative, I am of the opinion that without your software, the contractor would not have been able to complete the work on time." (view)

CLEVOR helps contractors build a competitive advantage

Because the jobs contractors bid for are given specifications, contractors cannot easily differentiate themselves from their competition. To be competitive, contractors must minimize their costs, find qualified people to meet the demand, and improve their due date performance.

To minimize costs, one can improve the resource productivity or utilization, which also helps with the problem of labour shortage. Due date performance can be improved by executing the tasks in the correct sequence by the right resources. Productivity, task sequence, and resource assignment all have to be handled when one is trying to come up with the best schedule, for you can have high productivity and yet not meet the due dates because you may be working on the wrong tasks.

CLEVOR Schedule Optimizer represents a breakthrough in scheduling technology. It can build an optimal, realistic, and lowest cost schedule that handles the issues of productivity, task sequence, and resource allocation.
