The wins for EDS Engineering
After comparing options nationwide and overseas, EDS chose Empower. Real-time visibility on times and jobs cut labour cost per job by an average of 30%.
Why EDS evaluated everyone
EDS Engineering didn't pick the first tool that walked in. They benchmarked options across New Zealand and overseas, looking for a labour management and job scheduling hub they could trust to scale with them.
What Empower brought
Real-time visibility on every job and every labour minute — not a weekly retrospective, but a live picture of what was happening on the floor right now.
Tendering with confidence
Labour cost per job dropped by an average of 30%. That gave EDS room to price competitively in tenders and still protect margin — a real edge against shops that are still guessing on cost.
