Custom In-House Software for Piling Contractor
In cooperation with a leading German foundation contractor GSI developed a custom SaaS platform, specifically tailored to their design and calculation workflows.
The solution was built to support daily operations, making project preparation faster, more consistent, and easier to manage across multiple branches.
High levels of automation reduce manual effort, free up engineering capacity, and create room for better decision-making.
In a more competitive market with lower pricing pressure, the platform allows our client to optimize designs already during the tender phase, resulting in more successful bids and sustained revenue growth.
Delivered as a secure cloud application, the software offers flexibility and scalability while allowing seamless updates.
The Challenge
The contractor previously relied on traditional desktop software for pile design.
As projects became more complex, these tools struggled to handle multiple load cases, soil profiles, and large pile groups consistently across branches.
At the same time, market demands increased — faster bid preparation, transparent documentation, and ecological requirements for reduced concrete use and CO₂ emissions.
To stay competitive, the company needed a modern SaaS solution that combined automation, accuracy, and sustainability in a single platform.
The Solution
We designed and developed a custom SaaS platform for pile design and optimization, integrating engineering logic, intuitive user interfaces, and centralized data management.
The solution enables engineers to manage complex load cases, visualize results instantly, and generate traceable reports for quality assurance.
Automated optimization algorithms help reduce concrete consumption by 10–50% while maintaining full structural safety — improving both cost efficiency and environmental performance.
The Results
Since introducing the SaaS platform, the company has achieved measurable business and operational improvements:
34% revenue growth over four years
Up to 50% material savings through optimized designs
Consistent, transparent documentation across all branches
Faster project turnaround and higher bid success rates
The platform has become a key element of daily operations — supporting sustainable growth, improving competitiveness, and laying the foundation for further digital transformation.
