Who We Help

Housebuilding & Construction

Valuable insight

Without the ability to crunch the numbers, you don’t survive.

Sempre’s Business Planning capability has been enabling organisations across Construction, Housebuilding, Social Housing and Real Estate to build scalable financial and operational planning solutions for over 10 years.

We help turn unstructured data sets into valuable insights that deliver better business decisions.

We have helped house builders streamline their customer life-cycle processes, with the intelligent use of data. Which helps manage regulatory risk, improve customer satisfaction and NHBC ratings and, most importantly, gain operational efficiency and financial resilience.

From site-specific performance to sector-wide trends, we believe that construction companies ought to be at the forefront of data-driven decision-making. And with a client portfolio that includes the logos below, Sempre has a proven track record in making this happen.

Helping you manage the changes ahead

Unforeseeable events are an occupational hazard for any construction company. On a project level, these are the miscalculations and pre-sign off rectifications that eat into your profits.

On a wider level, they include the demand fluctuations, input price volatility, regulatory and political changes that can scupper your future plans.

Now especially, hurdles to great decision-making include:

Resource management

Forecasting and budgeting for costs has always been a challenge. Materials availability and price volatility and fluctuating labour supply look set to exacerbate this.

Regulatory management

A proposed shake-up of Planning Regulations, a perceived ‘war on land banking’, the continuing impact of varying building regulations: all of these actual or proposed changes could have a significant impact on business models.

Reputation management

The customer satisfaction survey is king, while the possibility of a New Homes Ombudsman further raises the potential for market players to be ‘named & shamed’ for quality shortcomings.

Sempre Solutions

Sempre have developed solutions that target particular business or industry pain points.

Field View Analytics

For on-site construction managers and operatives, Viewpoint Field View replaces pen, paper and digital camera with something much more useful.  What if you could take all of that on-site data and put it to work for your wider business?  This is what Sempre asked.  And through asking these questions, we’ve become the leading Field View partner for data integration management and visualisation.

By adopting Sempre’s Field View Analytics solution, which delivers a range of dashboards, reports and KPIs, businesses can now take their captured on-site data to report, share and analyse like never before.  That’s Business Intelligence.

The Connected Construction Challenge

Lack of visibility across an organisation impacts revenue, customer satisfaction, reputation and health & safety. Connected Construction feeds on-site information across sales, production, finance and more, in real-time, to help create a truly connected view across the whole business.

Our Connected Construction Assessment looks at how connected your organisation is currently, how to improve it and which steps to prioritise.

This helps construction leaders leverage existing data and technology, and modernise operating procedures, so they can drive certainty, avoid surprises and spot issues before they magnify to become costly remedial work, delays and reputational damage.
