Fractional CIO Transforms Communication for Field & Office Team

Disconnected Teams, Dropped Calls and Costly Miscommunication

A contracting firm with a dispersed workforce in both the field and office was struggling with the challenges of remote communication, especially in more rural areas. Their teams relied on various video call solutions — FaceTime, Google products and others — but the experience was frustrating. Calls dropped, video quality was poor and no consistent system was in place. Critical discussions about change orders, blueprints and job site updates were inefficient, leading to delays and costly miscommunications.

A Game Changer for Field and Office Collaboration

Recognizing the challenge, their leadership team turned to Thriveon for a solution. Our Fractional CIO quickly assessed the situation and recommended a strategic shift to Microsoft Teams. This modern collaboration tool not only provided seamless, high-quality video calls but also enabled effortless file sharing, including blueprints and PDF markups from Bluebeam, all at no additional cost.

The introduction of Teams brought about immediate and significant improvements. Field and office teams could now connect effortlessly, ensuring clear communication of updates and keeping work on track. Real-time sharing of change orders led to reduced rework, improved project timelines and increased profitability. The firm's workflow is now streamlined, and its team is more productive and satisfied.
