MY CONCLUSIONS !

& RECOMMENDATIONS

#JBTECHTALKJB.CNF.IO

MY CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

At 1% of rev, construction companies’ IT budgets are abnormally small and staffs are stretched very thin. We have to do more with less than other industries.

#JBTECHTALKJB.CNF.IO

Secure mobile & cloud is viable right now, and should be implemented. Adoption rate of mobile and cloud is already higher than expected.

MY CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

#JBTECHTALKJB.CNF.IO

Still far too reliant on Excel for Storage, Computing and Data Transfer !We need cross platform, not just closed-loop, integration

MY CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

#JBTECHTALKJB.CNF.IO

Industry needs to get Serious About On Premise and Cloud Security

MY CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

#JBTECHTALKJB.CNF.IO

Everything needs to be in a private or public cloud

MY CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
