Describing the benefits to his business, David Sigrist, managing partner of HZDS AG of Zurich says, "Using a conservative estimate, we believe that we are currently saving more than 10% of our time ¾ time that we can use more effectively in our business such as within our creative team."

"iManage essentially provides a project-management approach important to HZDS because our teams have a range of tasks to complete within their assigned projects. By utilizing the iManage solution our project heads are now always aware of what is happening both within their teams and on their projects, enabling them to manage projects more effectively and keep everything on schedule," remarks Sigrist. "We also consider our customers to be team members, and because of the portal capabilities of the iManage solution, customers can view the status of their projects through a secure extranet, improving customer satisfaction and giving us a real competitive edge," continues Sigrist.

"The ability to pool resources and collaborate on all project related documents is critical for a general contractor like HZDS," comments Patrick Baudouin, vice president, EMEA, iManage. "The cost savings already seen by HZDS prove that rapid deployment of the right solution can deliver tangible benefits to the business. This is especially important in an industry like construction where margins are low," concludes Baudouin.
