Successful Project
Managers share their
secrets with IronSpire

Tip #4
- Seek first to understand, and then to be understood (convince yourself, then
the team)
If you have ever tried to leverage a new technology across a company,
you know that is difficult at best. It won't happen unless you
are convinced of and can demonstrate its benefits to the rest of the team.
Generally, demos and sales pitches won't do it - you must try the product, in
real situations, before you can truly back it.
Opportunity:
Champion a new technology.
Tactic: Pilot
Projects - Some
web-based project management vendors recognize the need to "try out" new
software and on a project basis for minimal cost.
Get a core team together to try the software on a pilot
project. The
sucessful team can then advocate the benefits to management and
other project managers.

IronSpire Supports .NET Framework
IronSpire recently upgraded its platform to support the Microsoft .NET
framework. The integration of
.NET shifts
collaboration into a new paradigm, one that enables the sharing of data across applications
and the ability to fully integrate systems.
|
|
|
|
What this means to
you
-
Project
and cost data collected by the team can be easily shared with in-house
applications. The job site will become an
extension of the back office, with data entered in IronSpire instantly
available to scheduling, accounting or estimating software.
-
It enables construction teams
comprised of multiple businesses on disparate systems to collaborate and
exchange information much more easily, leading to increased efficiency
and more effective decision making.
