Case Study: Improving Project Management
The Challenge
Robert Davies Home Improvement, LLC sought to enhance their construction project management. Specializing in a wide range of home improvement projects that support the concept of “aging in place,” Robert Davies Home Improvement operates in a growing industry where more individuals are choosing to stay in their homes or move in with family instead of opting for a Senior Care Facility.
Following a discussion with Robert Davies, it was concluded that the most effective course of action would be to conduct a Technology Assessment. This assessment enables our team of experts to comprehensively examine all aspects of a business, thereby facilitating the creation of a tailored action plan for our clients.
Implementation

This solution will empower their team to oversee projects from referral, through the bidding process and construction, to project completion.
