Company Background

KR Johnston Construction is a San Francisco-based commercial construction company specialising in tenant improvement across the city's commercial office market. 

Founded by Kara Johnston in 2024, the company's portfolio already includes work at Salesforce Tower – San Francisco's most iconic commercial building – a testament to the calibre of team and reputation they've built in a remarkably short time.

Every member of the KR Johnston team brings over a decade of industry experience. They may be a young company, but they operate like one that has been running for many years.

The Challenge

Running Procore and QuickBooks as separate systems without a reliable connection between them creates a predictable set of problems. 

  • Data entered in Procore has to be manually reconciled in QuickBooks. 
  • Errors are hard to trace: when something doesn't land correctly, finding out where it went wrong means going back through both systems manually. 
  • Unsigned subcontracts slip through unnoticed. 
  • Bookkeeping becomes a time-consuming exercise in reactive troubleshooting, with someone going in multiple times a week to investigate discrepancies. 

And the longer those issues go unresolved, the messier things get - particularly come tax time.

For KR Johnston, getting ahead of all of that before it became a problem was the priority.

The Solution

OneCore has given KR Johnston's financial controller, Moe Mynt, complete visibility over the business's financial operations – including invoices, commitments, vendor mapping, and contract compliance – in a single place.

Rather than hunting across two systems to find where something went wrong, the OneCore dashboard identifies issues at project level, categorises them clearly, and points directly to what needs fixing in Procore. Unsigned subcontracts surface automatically, so nothing slips through. Vendor mapping issues, commitment errors, project-level discrepancies: all visible, all traceable, all resolvable without the investigative work that would otherwise consume hours each week.

The support relationship with the OneCore team has accelerated that confidence significantly. Working with Interfy support team member Joshua, who brings deep knowledge of both Procore and QuickBooks, Moe has developed a thorough understanding of how to run the system tightly. 

When Moe has identified areas for improvement and fed them back, the team has either implemented them across the platform or explained clearly why a limitation existed. That responsiveness has shaped how KR Johnston think about the partnership.

The Result

  • Saved 8+ hours per week in financial administration and troubleshooting 
  • Reduced bookkeeping review from multiple times a week to approximately once a week 
  • Full visibility over financial operations across invoices, commitments, vendor mapping and subcontracts in one place 
  • Automated subcontract compliance tracking – unsigned contracts flagged before they're overlooked 
  • Clear error dashboard pinpoints issues at project level, eliminating manual cross-system investigation
  • Knowledgeable support team built genuine system confidence and capability 
  • Product feedback actively incorporated, with improvements rolled out across the platform

"Since we got the right support and setup in place, it's been a smooth ride – I'm so pleased with where we are now. I like that whenever I raise something that could work better, the Interfy team either come back and say 'we've done it' – and they implement it across all their customers – or they explain clearly why it can't be done. That level of responsiveness is rare."
