The to do list. We’ve all got (at least) one. Having a well-crafted to do list can be an incredibly helpful tool when it comes to managing your time and workload. They can be as simple or complex as you’d like – it doesn't matter what type of work you do, there's always a place for a this resource.
To me, one team's to do list stands out above the rest. Take a look at this high-level snapshot of action items in Haiti from one of our customers, the Sitwayen Development Group (SDG) and LEVE Foundation:
- Track and inventory $30 million worth of medical supplies, shipped globally
- Establish a widely accessible Haitian business incubator
- Construct schools, hospitals, and homes across the nation
- Introduce the concept of real-time shipment tracking
It’s a pretty phenomenal handful of goals, and represents only a glimpse of what this team is undertaking in Haiti. SDG and LEVE have quite the story to tell.
Led by James Murphy and Mike Stewart, SDG and LEVE have been on the ground and at work to help development however they can in Haiti, with an all encompassing scope of projects ranging from establishing an international mortgage network to building homes for families, schools for children, and hospitals for a nation.
These ambitions and objectives are coming to life with the help of cloud technology.
Recently, Stewart, Murphy, and team switched to Google Apps and Smartsheet to manage their business.
“Our main offices are split between Florida and Haiti, and we work with vendors across the globe,” explained Stewart.
“For that reason, any collaboration solution that we choose has to be intuitive and easy for anyone to learn and use. When we found Smartsheet, the pieces just fell into place. It’s powerful enough to track everything related to all of our construction projects, yet flexible enough to use for virtually any other undertaking.”
The time the teams save from efficiently using Smartsheet and Google to collaborate gives SDG
and LEVE more resources to focus on their mission.
Their case study details the full story of just how this ambitious team is tackling some of the biggest challenges that Haiti is facing with the help of Smartsheet.
Our customers do incredible things with cloud technology, and we’re honored to play a part.
