Rider Levett Bucknall adopts Sypro contract management tool

RLB has agreed a three-year partnership with Sypro and will use the tool across all its sectors, including residential, leisure, retail, data centres and infrastructure.

By centralising contract data and connecting with existing systems, the platform gives RLB teams a consistent view of their projects, reducing administrative work and allowing them to focus on higher-value activities, Sypro said. It will support RLB’s management of projects across a range of contract types, including New Engineering Contract, Joint Contracts Tribunal, and bespoke agreements. Processes can be tailored to each project’s specific needs, whether it’s a small refurbishment or a megaproject.

Dave Marks, digital lead – project management, at RLB, said: “RLB’s project pipeline is expanding, and we needed a contract management tool that could fit with the way we work and grow with us. Sypro was flexible enough to slot into our existing processes, and the support and training from the team made it straightforward to get it up and running, which helps us keep projects on track, manage multiple sites efficiently and stay on top of compliance.

“Having a digital, data-led approach that works for our teams means we’re confident it will support RLB and our clients as we take on more projects.”

Charley Wainwright, SaaS sales manager at Sypro, added: “With the industry under significant pressure to deliver on time and to budget, it is more important than ever that projects are supported throughout all stages of delivery. Our technology proactively manages risk and supports clearer communication, integral to successful delivery.

“By integrating seamlessly with existing tools and adapting to the way RLB works, we are enabling teams to focus on high-value activities, make smarter decisions and collaborate more effectively with clients and supply chain partners. With RLB undergoing a period of digital transformation, we are helping to contribute to this drive, proving the value of digital contract management.”
