The Weitz Company is a 152-year old general contracting company. Started by Charles H. Weitz in 1855 as a small carpentry shop, the Weitz Company has grown into the nation's 21st largest general building contractor. The company wanted to support rapid, exponential growth. The challenge was to use technology to improve business efficiency and profitability and leverage information to improve decision making. The company implemented Oracle's JD Edwards applications to streamline IT systems and provide a more scalable solution as the company prepared for rapid growth. It also automated payroll with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll - eliminating direct timesheet entry, which is difficult in the construction industry, and paper pay stubs.
