About Daniel Charles Construction
Originally established as Daniel Charles Construction Ltd in 2005 as a traditional style construction company with the aim of becoming the clients’ first choice. Since then the business has gone from strength to strength with Daniel Charles Surveys added in 2007 and the acquisition of Len Kirk Plant Hire in 2021, now known as Daniel Charles Aggregates.

Our range of skills and equipment means we are able to undertake projects in a large variety of sectors ranging from domestic builds to major infrastructure works, operating as Principal Contractor or Subcontractor.

Operating a fleet of over 500 items of plant and employing a fully skilled and diverse workforce who are able to adapt to the challenges often faced by the industry and continually deliver an extremely high-quality service, on time and on budget.

Operating from our Head Office at Dunholme along with Kirks Yard at Whisby Road, Lincoln and Kirks Quarry at Dunston, we have amassed a dedicated and skilled workforce encompassing Plant & Quarry Operatives, Groundworkers, Site Managers, Health and Safety Manager, Contract Managers, Mechanics, Engineers, Surveyors and Head Office staff.

Our Directors maintain direct involvement in all aspects of our projects, working with the project team to maintain a positive and collaborative approach to successful project delivery.

The problem

The client needed visibility staff qualifications and expiry dates. This enabled compliance as well as being able to make the best use of their staff and contractors.

What we did

  • Designed a desktop app that enabled rapid data entry and data imports.
  • Produced reports of upcoming expiry dates.
  • Created an app for site managers to lookup workers qualifications.
  • Added incident reporting, asset allocation, and PPE usage.

The solution

We started with a desktop app as they are quick to build, and then added functionality as the client got comfortable with what was possible with software.

Client feedback

“Having worked with Barry in my previous employment I had no hesitation in asking him to assist in my new role within Daniel Charles Construction to further develop a CRM system for Training and Development of our employees. The task of using excel spreadsheets to record our employees training and keep track of when cards and certification were about to expire etc., was a daunting one with so many people, but an important function to keep our company compliant and current with legislation.

Barry had already created a CRM system for training which together we have managed to turn into a bespoke system for Training Co-ordination that fits our company and how we work. Its fantastic, I know what all of our employees have at a glance, their certification is held on the system and I can run reports to keep up to date with everything. The system allows me to share certain areas with personnel in the office and on sites and Barry is working on a mobile App to make it even more streamlined. The joy of working with Barry is that he allows me to control where I want the system to develop, I email an idea, as situations change, and he makes it happen – couldn’t ask for a better service!”
