Manage company workflow with a custom web platform

Northwood Advisors are a consulting firm from Southern California with more than 15 years of experience in the provision of BI solutions. The company helps to bridge the worlds of business and IT as well as to unify the efforts of various departments behind a singular purpose.

For their advantage, we created PacTrac - a cloud-based web platform for companies operating in the construction industry.

As a consultancy Northwood Advisors need to design, build and deploy various software solutions for their enterprise clients to help the latter gain and maintain a competitive advantage which improves the effectiveness, trajectory, and valuation of their businesses. Selleo was engaged by Northwood Advisors to develop a business process management tool PacTrac for a Northwood Advisor’s client: Pacific West Communications, Inc. – a telecommunications infrastructure and site development company. PWC needed a platform to support the management of:

  • employee tasks jobs assignments and scheduling prepared by managers
  • shift planning and report generation for employees
  • work evaluation providing necessary information to quality supervisors

Selleo’s main task was to develop the custom web platform that would aid the company in managing the workflow and organization within particular departments.

Northwood Advisors’ reputation rides on every solution we deliver. So when I need a development partner, I feel comfortable knowing I’ve got the Selleo team helping me. Among many things, I appreciate that they have been willing to adapt their project management process to make it work better for me. And everyone on the team has been truly a pleasure to work with.

A user-friendly interface with easy-to-understand reports

PacTrac is a cloud-based web platform which consists of several modules such as:

  • work breakdown structure creation and management
  • jobs assignments, schedules and shift planning

The platform is also integrated with an online document management system (eBridge) with powerful scanning, retrieval and reporting features. All of the features were designed to closely correspond with PWC real-life business processes with their specific characteristics.

The tool facilitates the management of the company by supporting:
