Suffolk Construction
One of the 20 largest construction firms in the country substantially increased operational efficiency using AI, handling over 40M transactions per day with a success rate of 99%.
Business goals
Suffolk sought a modern integration solution based on six key criteria: ease of learning and use for quick adoption, cost-effective implementation and maintenance, and scalability with reliability to support future growth. After evaluating several platforms and engaging in a proof of concept, the team selected the Boomi Enterprise Platform. Key platform differentiators included exceptional real-time adaptability, user-friendliness, and seamless handling of real-time modifications and complex integrations.
