University Business: Meet Me Online

TeamDynamixHE customers, BYU-Idaho and Carnegie Mellon, were the focus of this cover story in the February issue of University Business magazine. Below is a small segment featuring Clay Fulton, technical coordinator at Carnegie Mellon.

“Better distribution of IT services and project visibility were the driving factors behind Carnegie Mellon University (Pa.) switching from a homegrown solution to the TeamDynamixHE offering. ‘Our system was lacking in terms of collaborating and providing information in a timely fashion,’ says Clay Fulton, technical coordinator in Carnegie Mellon’s Planning and Project Management Office. Fulton believes that managers needed a better way to track open tasks and communicate project status to their teams.

“The department has been able to eliminate regular ‘coordinator for the day meetings’ during which all the managers would present their open projects and receive feedback. Now comments and concerns are provided through the project management system. ‘The face-to-face meetings used to take a lot of resources to plan and hold,’ Fulton remembers.”
