PENTA Role-Based Workbenches are construction business intelligence tools that provide everything you need to see and do in one place

Role-Based Workbenches are construction business intelligence tools that help your team focus on the most important tasks and issues to get work done more efficiently.

Role-Based Workbenches make it easy for users in various roles to monitor the key performance indicators that matter to them…and your organization.

As your entry point in PENTA, your Workbench presents summary level information in an easy-to-understand format using charts, gauges, data grids, and other visualization tools. Supporting details are only a click away where you can build re-usable reports or export data to Excel, CSV, or PDF. Your team will appreciate the user experience as they click through to take action in PENTA windows and workflows without having to navigate through menus.

Role-Based Workbenches are accessible from smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. They are tailored to each person’s role and individual preferences, so all of your key employees can quickly see and act on the information they need, from wherever they are.

Why are they called Workbenches?

When you need to get a project done, there's no place like your workbench, because everything you need is at your fingertips. That's the idea behind Role-Based Workbenches. Your Role-Based Workbench puts the construction business intelligence tools YOU need right at your fingertips. And just as an electrician's workbench has different tools than a welder's, your Workbench is specific to your role. You see information that matters to you, without wading through information you don't care about. And unlike a static dashboard which only displays information, your Workbench identifies problems and lets you drill down to take immediate action.

Role-Specific Views

Role-Based Workbenches are available to present the type of data users typically want in various roles such as:

CEOs
Controllers

Cost Engineers
