Cornerstone of our 31 Years - PMIS

We’re excited to announce that B.I.G.'s Vice President Peter Urban will be speaking at the 2024 Innovate User Conference this month. This is an annual conference for e-Builder, Trimble's Enterprise solution for capital program and construction project management. 


Synopsis

Construction project teams face numerous challenges, with project closeout being a common hurdle. This final stage often gets overlooked, leading to incomplete information, disorganized delivery, and delayed receipt post-occupancy. Speakers Peter Urban, alongside Jessica Dubler and Michelle McMullen from The Pennsylvania State University, will explore Penn State's journey using e-Builder to overcome these challenges. Success lies in early planning, continuous management, standardization, clear communication, and implementing tools for document and data organization.

Discover how Penn State leverages

e-Builder to streamline handover processes, ensuring timely and comprehensive information for facility managers. Looking ahead, the presentation will delve into next-level solutions, envisioning automation, improved data validation, and leveraging data for real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance. Join us to learn how

e-Builder is paving the way for a more efficient future in construction project closeout at Penn State.

What is SOC 2 Type 2?

 

SOC 2 Type II refers to a comprehensive certification within the Systems and Organization Controls (SOC) framework, specifically designed for service organizations that store, process, or handle customer information. This type of report assesses the effectiveness of a company's internal controls over a period of time, typically ranging from 3 to 12 months.

 

The SOC 2 Type II certification is issued following an audit conducted by external auditors. These auditors evaluate the organization's adherence to one or more of the five trust service principles: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. Unlike the SOC 2 Type I report, which assesses controls at a specific point in time, the Type II report verifies that these practices and controls are consistently applied over the designated review period, offering a more rigorous assurance of operational effectiveness.

 

Organizations seeking SOC 2 Type II certification demonstrate a significant commitment to maintaining high standards for managing customer data. This level of compliance is particularly important for cloud-based service providers and other entities that handle sensitive information, as it assures clients and stakeholders of the organization’s commitment to data security and privacy.

 

These certifications are crucial components of regulatory oversight, vendor management programs, internal governance, and comprehensive risk management strategies, underscoring their importance in today’s data-centric business environment.

B.I.G. Staff Continues to Give Back


Bush Infotech Group continues to support community initiatives and programs. On May 3rd, Harvard Alum & B.I.G. Vice President, Quentella Enty, joined Harvard and U of C Alums to present the “Early College Awareness Program” at Kenwood Academy.

 

In a pioneering collaboration, alumni from the Harvard Club Chicago and the University of Chicago/United Kingdom Extension joined forces to launch this outreach and recruitment program. The initiative aims to engage 7th and 8th grade students at CPS schools, introducing them to higher education opportunities.

 

This pilot program featured a TED-Style Talk which culminated with an interactive Q&A session. As an added surprise, the young students were joined by a blend of high school upperclassmen. The organizers were thoroughly encouraged by the enthusiastic response from students, who laughed, applauded, and eagerly participated in discussions. Following the formal session, students lingered to pose additional questions to the speakers, highlighting the impact of the event.

 

Inspired by the program’s potential, Harvard Clubs nationwide are poised to replicate similar initiatives, leveraging public school partnerships to motivate and recruit the next generation of talented students.
