"This was the logical next stage for us. Back in the day we managed everything in Excel, before gradually moving project management online – first using Microsoft Access, then a combination of SharePoint and Microsoft Dynamics. This had served us to a point, but MS Dynamics is an out-of-the-box solution that isn’t terribly intuitive and was not designed for the work we do. "

About HDR | Andrew Reid

HDR | Andrew Reid is a specialist building-services consultancy delivering commissioning, design, and project management expertise to complex construction projects worldwide. With a reputation for technical excellence and collaborative delivery, they help clients achieve high-performing, sustainable, and efficient buildings.

The Challenge

HDR | Andrew Reid was growing rapidly across multiple regions, but their project tools, from Excel sheets to Microsoft Dynamics, were inefficient, unintuitive, and didn’t scale to meet their global operations. The brief for the new system was that it must be easy and intuitive to use, without a manual; support offline use on mobile devices; and enable users to see different views of project information – from a high-level overview down to more granular detail, as needed.

The Solution

One Beyond delivered a bespoke project-management system that’s mobile-optimised, works offline, offers multiple project views, and supports forecasting. As a result, HDR | Andrew Reid now enjoys consolidated project control, smart forecasting, seamless data capture, and transparency across teams—anytime, anywhere.

A closer look at features and benefits

A sleek mobile-friendly UI works offline, empowering engineers to log data even without connectivity.

Multi-level project views let stakeholders effortlessly switch between high-level summaries and granular details.

Dynamic safety risk assessments and certification tracking ensure compliance and quality control.

Smart Excel import makes the transition easy, bringing legacy data into the new system painlessly.

Continuous, fact-based forecasting visibility (up to six months ahead) keeps projects proactive, not reactive.

Web-based access gives both internal teams and clients real-time transparency into project status and reporting.

"In a growing business, you need the right infrastructure to support growth, and that is as much about having a solid system people can rely on to do the job, wherever they are in the world, as it is about having Quality managers in place. The One Beyond system provides precisely that."
