Davies Engineering Group Transforms Operations with Unanet
In a bold move aimed at modernization and efficiency, Davies Engineering Group has integrated Unanet's advanced ERP and CRM systems into its operations. This major shift marks a new era for the company, previously known as ThermalTech Engineering until its rebranding this year. With the evolution not just in name but in operational capabilities, Davies Engineering is now equipped to better serve its industrial and manufacturing clientele across multiple regions, including Cincinnati, Fort Worth, Indiana, and Central Pennsylvania.
Founded in 1980, the company has evolved from a focus on energy auditing into a comprehensive MEP, controls, and process engineering service provider. With over 200 skilled engineers, Davies Engineering is well-placed to tackle the complexities of modern engineering challenges.
The Need for Change
As Davies Engineering looked to the future, it recognized that its outdated legacy systems were hindering its growth and efficiency. The previous software solutions relied heavily on manual processes, making budget tracking, staff scheduling, and project management cumbersome and prone to error. Understanding that an integrated, real-time solution was essential for visibility from project inception to delivery, the firm sought a more sophisticated approach.
President Michael Huntwork emphasized the need for a system that aligned with their workflows – not one that imposed limitations. He expressed that Unanet provides the critical data-driven insights essential for boosting margins, improving win rates, and enhancing bidding accuracy.
Unanet: A Strategic Partnership
After a thorough evaluation of potential software solutions, Davies Engineering selected Unanet's AE ERP and CRM due to its strategic dashboards and enhanced functionalities. The new system offers seamless visibility into performance metrics categorized by industry, client, and job type, which is a game changer for resource allocation and pipeline management. With these tools in place, the company will be better positioned to analyze project backlogs and budget forecasts accurately.
The recently published 2025 AEC Inspire Report by Unanet highlighted major challenges facing firms in the architecture, engineering, and construction sectors, notably in resource management, financial transparency, project management, and business development. Many firms reported that their existing tools lacked adequate business intelligence capabilities to confront these issues effectively. Unanet’s solutions have been tailored to fill this gap.
Embracing the Future
With the switch to Unanet, Davies Engineering is now positioned not only to enhance current operations but also to facilitate future growth and scalability. As the firm prepares for further expansion, the integrated ERP and CRM systems will empower it to make informed decisions based on real-time data insights.
Unanet has a proven track record, serving over 1,850 architecture, engineering, and construction firms, blending functionality with intuitive design. This has made it a favored choice for organizations looking to grow without compromising on their operational effectiveness.
Conclusion
In summary, Davies Engineering's transition to Unanet represents a significant leap forward in its operational capabilities, allowing for more precise project forecasting and improved decision-making. As the company continues to adapt to the evolving demands of the engineering landscape, partnering with Unanet demonstrates its commitment to efficiency, innovation, and exceptional client service.
