Case Study: Stack Optimization for North America’s Largest Modular Home Builder

Industry: Construction / Manufacturing

Employees: 6,000+

Facilities: 40+ across the U.S. and Canada

Focus Areas: Stack Rationalization, License Optimization, Platform Consolidation

Challenge: Complexity & Cost

Rapid growth had led to a fragmented software environment—overlapping platforms, inconsistent licensing, and limited integration. Operations slowed, costs escalated, and teams faced unclear ownership, manual workflows, and reduced visibility across business functions.

Our Approach: Cyberhill’s Stack Optimization Framework

  • Align with Business & Security Objectives: Clarified strategic goals and identified misalignment between tools and real-world needs
  • Stack Rationalization Strategy: Mapped tools to outcomes, proposed consolidation, licensing changes, and architectural improvements
  • Implementation Support: Phased rollout plan with change management support
  • Ongoing Optimization: Quarterly check-ins with defined metrics to ensure sustained efficiency

Deliverables

  • Executive Summary of High-Impact AI Initiative
  • Governance, Metrics & ROI Tracking Framework
  • Phased Program Plan (6 months to 1+ year)
  • AI Delivery Timeline with Key Milestones & Dependencies

Key Results

  • $2.1M in annual savings from software and license optimization
  • 30% reduction in time managing workflows and systems
