Client Interview:
Panduit Corp & Global Project Management

Name: Jeff Skimel
Title: Senior Project Manager Global Real Estate
Company:
Panduit Corp
Projectmates User Since:
2009
Project Location:
Zapopan, Jalisco, MEXICO

What are some of the challenges you’re able to overcome using Projectmates for a global project like this?

Jeff: Interestingly, there is a benefit to multilingual challenges. For example, a Spanish-only speaking contractor will submit literature for approval to a bilingual intermediary who will translate and approve through Projectmates. The site photo module is also helpful in managing from a distance.

In what way has Projectmates improved the collaboration between the project players?

Jeff:
Greatly, both for domestic and international projects and for all of the major project management processes, such as submittals, RFIs, photos, financials, etc.
