“Scaling a platform business requires more than just growth — it requires clarity and consistency in how you see and manage the business. We were looking for a partner that understands the operational realities of specialty contracting and could help us bring structure to our data without overcomplicating our processes. Runding’s approach gives us a clear path to improve visibility and build a foundation for long-term growth.”
Andy Boeck, Chief Operating Officer at Total Mechanical.
Total Mechanical Partners with Runding Corporation to Build a Scalable Data Foundation with OpenBuild
Total Mechanical Solutions, Southeastern Wisconsin’s premier HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire protection contractor, and a leading multi-service platform backed by Symbiome Capital, has selected Runding Corporation to unify its data and establish a scalable operational foundation to support continued platform growth.
The Challenge
As Total Mechanical continued to expand as a multi-service platform, managing data, reporting, and operational visibility across multiple business units became increasingly complex. Fragmented systems, manual reporting processes, and inconsistent data structures made it difficult to gain timely insight into business performance and support growth at scale.
This complexity:
- Limited real-time visibility into operational performance
- Increased reliance on manual reporting processes
- Created inconsistent data across business units
- Made it more difficult to scale efficiently while maintaining operational control
- Reduced the speed and confidence of business decision-making
The Solution
Total Mechanical partnered with Runding Corporation to implement OpenBuild and establish a connected operational framework designed for long-term growth. The initiative focused on creating a centralized data foundation while preserving the systems and workflows teams relied on every day.
Runding:
- Centralized data from across the organization
- Standardized reporting structures and processes
- Created a connected operational framework to improve visibility
- Unified information across business units without disrupting existing workflows
- Built a scalable foundation to support future platform growth and acquisitions
Results & ROI
By implementing OpenBuild, Total Mechanical established a more connected and data-driven organization, enabling leadership to make faster, more informed decisions while supporting continued expansion.
Key outcomes include:
- Improved operational visibility across the organization
- More consistent and reliable reporting
- Faster access to business-critical information
- Enhanced decision-making capabilities for leadership
- A scalable data foundation capable of supporting continued growth and platform expansion
- Greater organizational alignment through connected data and reporting processes
