Abstract: McKinstry, like many organizations in the construction space, is facing the supply chain crisis, the affordability crisis, and labor scarcity head-on. While their business was growing, these factors led to staffing issues supporting cross-department work. To solve this business need and challenge, McKinstry went through a change management process and quickly identified the problem was primarily centered on how little visibility they had to in-flight and upcoming projects, as well as where resources were needed. McKinstry identified that a Project Portfolio Management (PPM) solution could not only support their improved process of managing resources but also support their organization in managing project financials and portfolios.
Karen Firmaniuk, Product Management Director at McKinstry, joins Gilles Almeras from Planisware to share ow McKinstry identified their issues, and why they decided the best fix was an end-to-end solution that included support in resource management, project financials, and overall portfolio management.Abstract: McKinstry, like many organizations in the construction space, is facing the supply chain crisis, the affordability crisis, and labor scarcity head-on.
