NetZero Group

Unifying Operations at Scale with ERP for Construction.

NetZero Case Study

Formed in late 2023 through the merger of two established heating and plumbing businesses under Waterland Private Equity, NetZero Group was created with a clear ambition: to build a scalable, technology-enabled organisation capable of delivering large-scale new-build projects, while also addressing the rapidly expanding retrofit market across Ireland. As the group continued to experience rapid growth with further acquisitions, including solar and heat pump servicing companies, it quickly became clear that existing systems and processes were no longer fit for purpose. Fragmented technologies, inconsistent workflows, and limited visibility across the group were creating operational challenges at a time when clarity and control were critical to supporting group expansion.

To underpin its growth strategy and establish a strong foundation for the future, NetZero embarked on a major digital transformation initiative. In partnership with Storm Technology, NetZero implemented a modern ERP for construction, 4PS Construct, as well as corporate performance management (CPM) solution, Solver. The project saw the development of a unified, scalable platform that now supports multiple companies and divisions across NetZero Group, enhancing visibility, reporting, and operational efficiency.

Business Benefits

Implementing 4PS Construct & Solver CPM delivered several key benefits for NetZero Group.

Accelerated Reporting

The month-end close has been reduced from 25+ days to approximately 10 days, enabling the finance team to meet private equity reporting timelines with confidence.

Reduced Manual Effort

Solver has replaced complex, spreadsheet-driven consolidation processes, delivering consistent reporting and freeing up valuable time for more strategic tasks like data analysis and planning.

Enhanced Insight

NetZero now has a unified platform that centralises data from across the groups companies and divisions, offering real-time data insight and empowering decision-making.

“Since the implementation of 4PS Construct and Solver we have unlocked significant time savings as a business. Importantly, this means the finance team now has more time available to focus on value-add activities like understanding the key drivers of business performance, providing key insights, enabling better decision-making, and spending more time on financial planning and analysis, which is instrumental to the group, given our ambitious growth targets.”
