What’s keeping construction leaders up at night?
In construction, it’s not just the physical work that keeps you up at night - it’s the mounting pressures, unexpected delays, and critical decisions that can derail a project. Whether it’s slipping timelines, runaway costs, a shrinking labour pool, or mounting compliance risks, each challenge has the power to grind progress to a halt. But with the right technology in place, there’s a smarter way forward. Below, we explore the six key pain points facing today’s construction leaders - and how Platned helps turn those fears into action.
Lying awake, watching deadlines slip away
Project delays can feel like an inescapable maze, derailing progress and putting your reputation at risk. For construction professionals, unexpected holdups are often due to poor planning, miscommunication, or unforeseen obstacles. Platned’s project management solutions provide clarity and control, helping you track timelines, assign tasks, and anticipate potential bottlenecks before they escalate. With real-time updates and collaborative features, staying ahead of deadlines is no longer a challenge but a guarantee.

How do you stop budgets from spiralling out of control?
Construction budgets are under constant pressure. Material price hikes, labour shifts, and unexpected scope changes can all eat into margins before you’ve had a chance to react. Platned helps you make sense of it all by supporting Microsoft Power BI, turning raw financial data into clear, actionable insight. With real-time dashboards and intelligent reporting, you can spot cost overruns early, forecast with confidence, and stay in control of every pound spent.

How do you keep up when the skilled workforce is shrinking?
Skilled labour is becoming harder to find and even harder to keep. In construction, that means project delays, overstretched teams, and rising costs. Platned helps you work smarter with IFS Field Service Management (FSM). From intelligent scheduling to mobile workforce tools and remote support, we streamline how work gets done, on-site, off-site, and everywhere in between. With automated workflows and real-time visibility, you can reduce reliance on scarce resources and keep projects moving, even when labour is tight.

How do you manage cashflow without losing sleep?
Cash flow problems can quietly sabotage even the most promising construction projects, delaying payments, disrupting work, and piling on financial stress. Platned simplifies construction finance with tools that help you monitor spend, forecast future costs, and manage working capital with confidence. And with ParsaAI, our intelligent invoice automation tool, you can accelerate approvals, reduce errors, and keep money moving. That means no more chasing payments and no more sleepless nights.
