Smooth, productive and more collaborative information management with Newforma Konekt
Fact: Professionals constantly face the challenge of information management. How many hours out of your workweek do you dedicate to finding and deciphering information in fragmented systems? Quickbase’s recent research surveyed over 1,000 technology decision-makers.
The study revealed that 58% of respondents spend between 10 and 20 hours per week tracking down information, greatly diminishing their ability to focus on revenue-driving work.
Beyond the fiscal implications, the heightened workload, added stress and potential errors become daily concerns for project managers, coordinators, architects, engineers and general contractors. In response, Newforma introduced the modern cloud-hosted platform Newforma Konekt.
