BESIX: Digitalization as a Strategic Choice
Time is money on the construction site—especially for a player like BESIX. With projects managed through divisions like Unitec, Belasco, and Infra, everything revolves around efficiency. From towers to bridges, from ports to industrial installations—each project brings unique challenges in terms of complexity, planning, and team coordination.
To keep all these sites running smoothly, accurate time tracking is essential—not only for payroll processing but also for project follow-up, reporting, and cost control.
That’s why BESIX is going all in on digitalization. Not for the sake of digitalization itself, but to streamline operations and centralize reliable data. That’s the context in which the integration between KPD’s construction software and the Suivo IoT platform was born: a partnership that makes on-site time tracking simpler, more accurate, and more efficient.
Why KPD and Suivo? A Powerful Combination
Construction companies have trusted KPD’s software for years. This Belgian software provider focuses exclusively on the construction sector. Their integrated platform unites all administrative, financial, and operational processes. From budgeting and project management to invoicing and post-calculation—KPD is the go-to solution for digital environments in construction.
Suivo complements this perfectly. Our IoT platform offers real-time tracking and monitoring of vehicles, machines, tools, and personnel. Using smart tags, GPS, sensors, and automation, we unlock critical data that helps companies optimize their asset management.
The integration between KPD and Suivo enables smooth data exchange between both systems. What used to be fully manual is now partly automated via exports—saving time and reducing errors.
How Does It Work in Practice?
Thanks to the connection between Suivo and the KPD platform, time tracking at BESIX has become significantly more efficient. Employees clock in via Suivo, already linked to the correct project or construction site. That data is then sent to KPD through a structured export, where it is automatically processed.
This link ensures that essential data—like who worked where and when—is transferred correctly and clearly. Suivo also retrieves project numbers and site details from both KPD and Navision (soon Business Central), so everything is automatically linked, minimizing manual input.
Although the process is not yet fully automated, it’s a big step toward reduced admin workload, fewer errors, and greater clarity in time tracking.

Benefits for BESIX
- Less Admin, More Efficiency
Thanks to the streamlined data transfer between Suivo and KPD, most manual input is no longer needed. Time records are exported from Suivo and imported into KPD, significantly reducing the admin workload for the logistics team.
Errors due to duplicate entries or missing data are largely avoided. Plus, the information is more aligned across both systems, resulting in greater clarity and consistency. - Real-Time Asset Visibility
BESIX employees can immediately see where assets are, which sites are using which machines, and when maintenance is due. Thanks to the integration with KPD, project-related data is also visible, greatly simplifying planning and monitoring. - Strong Cost Control
Because equipment usage is tracked in detail, BESIX can budget and invoice more accurately. Unused or lost equipment is a thing of the past. Moreover, project post-calculations become more precise, as the link with KPD provides insight into the actual deployment of resources. - Improved Interdepartmental Collaboration
Where logistics, admin, and project management teams used to rely on separate systems, the integration now creates one central source of truth. Everyone works with the same information, improving collaboration and transparency.

KPD: A Digital Pioneer in Construction
The partnership between Suivo and KPD reaffirms KPD’s leading role in the digital transformation of construction. KPD is more than a software provider—it’s a strategic partner that understands the needs of both clients and the industry.
Their strength? A laser focus on construction companies, combined with years of experience and an open mindset toward integrations. KPD understands that companies increasingly rely on different digital tools, and ensures they work together seamlessly. The collaboration with Suivo is the perfect example.
Future-Proof Construction Starts with Smart Data
The integration between KPD and Suivo is not just a technical story—it’s a strategic step toward a future-proof construction sector. In a market where margins are tight and skilled workers are scarce, companies must work smarter. Spend less time on admin, gain more insights from data, and—above all—get the right equipment to the right site at the right time.
With this integration, BESIX is setting the right example. And together, Suivo and KPD show that innovation in construction doesn’t have to be complex—as long as you choose the right partners.
