This enables us to stand by our promise to work with customers as a technology partner and to meet their expectations.”

Aurang Rona, Corporate Development Manager Zuken said, “By implementing fundamental project management strategies based on internationally-recognized standards we focus on to running the type of small, medium and complex projects common in today’s marketplace.” He continues, “For example, we are better able to reach desired project goals and achieve those goals within specific time and cost parameters. This means we complete projects on time and under budget, which turns into more flexibility and accessibility for other customer projects. Everyone wins – from our customers to our team members –  which we see as the greatest benefit of our project management initiative.”
