Satra Properties, a Mumbai-based real estate development firm, has decided to implement IMT eBuild, an ERP software from IT services provider Interactive Multimedia Technologies or IMT. The eBuild software comes packed with features that can enhance the performance of any real estate or construction company. The ERP comes with built-in modules such as Purchase and Stores, Sales, Architecture, Maintenance, Accounts, Engineering, Legal, and Payroll to help ease the processes of the construction and real estate industry.
Just when the real estate market is on a bull’s race with increasing prices, more and more developers are realising the need for technological support in order to strengthen operations and make processes simpler and less redundant. The management at Satra Properties also felt that it should introduce a platform whereby the entire construction process can be automated and this is when they approached IMT for a solution.
The integration of the ERP system IMT eBuild will help Satra Properties to automate their real estate and construction division completely. The eBuild Accounts Module is loaded with a browser-architectured enterprise model delivering control, speed, responsiveness and cost saving to Satra. The eBuild Purchase Module coupled with the Inventory and Payable Modules will enable purchase managers to easily access information about vendors and stock levels and review purchase analysis reports in real time. The eBuild Sales Module will provide all sales-related information, which includes feedback from customers. It also has a CRM feature. The eBuild Payroll Module will facilitate timely release of salaries in accordance with HR policies and will help to handle reimbursements, loans and advances. The eBuild Architecture Module will contribute to the process of building. The eBuild Engineering Module will help to monitor and control the project data, which will further enable design-to-cost engineering and help in optimisation of the construction cost. The engineering module is also inter-related to other modules such as Accounts and Architecture.
The IMT eBuild ERP can also be customised to suit individual company needs; this means that addition or modification of various features and functions is possible. With IMT eBuild, the Satra Group intends to make the planning and execution of their projects a lot more structured and this will in turn help them in timely completion of the projects. At a time when a small delay in material delivery could mean a huge escalation of cost, Satra Properties hopes to curtail the same with the help of IMT eBuild.
