IMR Rapidly Increases Daptiv Seats to Accommodate Growing Client Demand

IMR is a rapidly growing consulting firm, constantly bidding on projects for its clients in the manufacturing, food and beverage, automotive and construction industries. It is the type of workplace where you need to wear many hats to get the job done: sales, leads follow up, customer care, and project management. The company was using Lotus Notes to manage its projects but had quickly outgrown it.

IMR Becomes Reseller

The company was in need of a single, unified platform that would manage tasks and projects for the work at hand, while at the same time provide an easy-to-use collaboration environment for the company and its clients. This platform also had to provide seamless task scheduling and allow project templates to be developed for the different vertical industry buckets the company was engaged in. As a Mexico-based company, IMR also needed a platform that would make it easy for users to enter information in both Spanish and English.

IMR evaluated a number of products including Microsoft Project, but determined that Daptiv was easier to use and deploy. Using Daptiv would allow the company to resolve multiple Project Management issues: issue tracking, resource management, collaboration, and provide a central repository for project information.

At first the company started out with five seats. While in the midst of an extremely large project, the company found that Daptiv was an even better platform than they anticipated, and as part of their consulting practice began recommending and reselling Daptiv to the clients it was consulting for and then in the market in general.

Daptiv Fits into Day-to-Day Activities

"Daptiv is a complete solution that resolves multiple Project Management issues such as issue tracking, resource management, collaboration, as well as provide a central repository for project information and executive control. We are a diverse organization, our employees are constantly traveling, and Daptiv’s web-based environment seamlessly fits into our day-to-day activities," says Raul Cardenas, Operations Manager, IMR.

IMR is a global consulting firm. After using Lotus Notes to manage their projects, they realized that they needed a stronger project management solution.

IMR started with five Daptiv user seats. As a quickly expanding consulting firm, they began reselling Daptiv to their clients and now have seventy-five seats. On one project, consultants from Cap Gemini actually replaced their existing project management system with Daptiv.
