The solution
Zachry selected LoadSpring Cloud Platform as the cloud platform to deliver Oracle Primavera Contract Management and Enterprise scheduling applications and related data to Zachry’s internal and external project members. LoadSpring was able to deliver Zachry’s solution within a week.
By having their applications and data centrally located on LoadSpring’s servers, Zachry team members from three continents can access their project management software and keep project information up-to-the-minute from any location, enabling real-time accurate management review. LoadSpring Cloud Platform has 128-bit encrypted authentication, making communications between team members not only easy but more secure than ever before.
LoadSpring Cloud Platform became the platform of choice for Zachry’s project controls applications. As a result, Zachry is now:
- Reducing costs charged to departmental budgets by decreasing IT expenses related to remote software deployments across different state organizations.
- Improving timeline and deadline completion by standardizing a dispersed team on one central set of applications and data
- Improving efficiencies by radically decreasing the time it took to deliver and manage access (including training and support) onboard LoadSpring Cloud Platform and project software to local business partners
“LoadSpring Cloud Platform has not only saved us months getting our project management applications up and running on the cloud, but it has given us the ability to share the applications with team members and business partners. The level of service in working with their staff has been impeccable.”
