PCL Construction has thrived for more than a century by consistently innovating and adapting to the latest technology. As an employee-owned company, PCL is defined by a culture that empowers its workforce and prioritizes the employee experience. By partnering with Navan, PCL is moving away from decentralized manual workflows toward a high-performance, unified tech stack.
"PCL's 120-year history is a testament to our ability to adapt and lead. We have always embraced technology to modernize our business and improve the lives of our employees," said Gordon Stephenson, Chief Financial Officer at PCL Construction. "In Navan, we found a partner that matches our resilient, tech-forward mindset. By unifying travel and expense, we are removing the friction of manual processes and giving our teams a superior, digital-first experience that allows them to stay focused on building the future."
The decision to adopt Navan reflects a commitment to driving operational excellence across PCL's more than 30 major centers. Key drivers of the partnership include:
- Empowering Employees: Replacing time-intensive manual workflows with a consumer-grade mobile app designed for field teams and executives.
- Massive Productivity Gains: Navan's automated reconciliation is projected to repurpose more than 15,000 hours annually back into the business.
- Consolidated Global Visibility: Unifying four disparate systems, including Concur and Direct Travel, into one platform with real-time data and visibility.
- Driving Cost Efficiency: Delivering more than $650,000 in estimated annual travel savings through Navan's optimized inventory and direct connections.
- Elite Support Infrastructure: Providing 24/7 global support and specialized VIP services to enable seamless travel for PCL's executive leadership.
"Navan aims to be the engine behind the world's most forward-thinking organizations, and PCL Construction is a premier example of a global leader that refuses to settle for the status quo," said Michael Sindicich, President of Navan. "By integrating travel and expense into a single AI-powered workflow, PCL is setting a new standard for productivity in the construction industry. This partnership continues Navan's momentum as the platform of choice for complex, global enterprises that demand both financial control and a premium user experience."
PCL Construction joins a growing list of enterprise organizations switching to Navan, including industry leaders from across Canada and the construction sector. This momentum is underscored by Navan's recent ranking as the No. 1 Travel Management Software in Canada in the G2 Spring 2026 Rankings, cementing its position as the preferred choice for Canadian companies demanding modern, scalable travel and expense solutions.
