Join Josh Steele, IT Manager for Thompson Engineering, Clay Pilkilton, Director of IT Security and Infrastructure from M&S Engineering and Doug Dahlberg from ASTI for a frank discussion about what it takes to stay competitive and how they use technology to let their teams work as if they're all in one office.
• “How to Make Remote Work, Work,” Nov. 18th at 12:30 p.m. PST; Security and performance issues can significantly impact a team's productivity. One way to fix that is to structure remote working environments correctly. Jeff Gillis, Director of IT at Psomas and Don Piliero, VP of Technology at NV5, will dig into how they are keeping their employees working productively from home with available technologies such as VDI solutions and where they fit in a scalable and flexible environment for remote work.
• “Achieve Seamless Project and Collaboration and Storage,” Nov. 19, 9:00 a.m. PST; Join Dan Gallivan of Payette and Greg Wesner of Panzura to discuss innovative cloud storage solutions that combine the flexibility, security and cost benefits of centralized storage. 
• “Covid’s 8% Productivity Boost” > Nov. 19, 12:00 p.m. PST;  When COVID hit, the AEC industry was divided into two groups. The first sent their people home, where they logged in and got straight back to work with productivity increases. For the second group who couldn't access files at the same speed, productivity dropped by up to 35%. Join Panzura and ATG in a discussion about what it takes to have a business so resilient that your organization can work from anywhere, at exactly the same speed as an onsite office.
