About the role
- The Business Systems Manager is the functional owner of Forgen's enterprise business applications, beginning with CMiC and extending across the broader business application portfolio.
- The title reflects ownership of an application portfolio, not supervision; this position has no direct reports.
- Forgen is a leading geotechnical and specialty civil construction company operating across North America.
Responsibilities
- Maintain a standing review with each operating group's leadership covering open items, adoption, and upcoming change.
- Co-design solutions with the operating group that owns the process, facilitate validation, and secure their agreement on approach before build begins.
- Own the application request and enhancement backlog, prioritized jointly with operating group and Accounting leadership.
- Maintain master data integrity, including chart of accounts, cost codes, job and project setup, vendor and subcontractor records, and organizational hierarchies.
- Manage upgrades, patches, and new module rollouts, including test planning, regression testing, and coordination with vendor support and internal stakeholders.
- Model current-state and future-state processes; document system requirements, scope, and acceptance criteria precise enough for a vendor or developer to build and test against, and record what was decided and why.
- Support month-end and job cost close by troubleshooting system issues and validating configuration ahead of financial reporting deadlines.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Business, Accounting, Construction Management, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
- Hands-on functional experience with a construction or project-accounting ERP such as CMiC, HCSS, Vista by Viewpoint, Sage 300 CRE, or Acumatica Construction.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts in user-friendly terms to field, finance, and executive audiences.
- Ability to travel as required, obtain and maintain jobsite access, and comply with Forgen and project-specific safety requirements.
Nice to have
- Experience in the construction industry, particularly heavy civil, geotechnical, environmental, or specialty contracting.
- Experience supporting an ERP upgrade, migration, or module implementation from planning through go-live.
- Familiarity with API-based or middleware integrations, Microsoft 365 and Power Platform, or construction platforms such as Procore, HCSS, B2W, Bluebeam, or InEight.
- Experience in an environment subject to DFARS 252.204-7012, NIST SP 800-171, or CMMC, or with prevailing wage and Davis-Bacon reporting.
- Strong customer service orientation with a collaborative, team-based approach and comfort working through ambiguous or undocumented system behavior.
- Physical Demands & Work Environment
- This role is performed in a mix of office and active jobsite environments, requiring frequent computer use, effective communication, and interaction with cross-functional stakeholders.
- Travel to Forgen offices and project sites is required for stakeholder engagement, observation, training, testing, and go-live support.
