New ways of working

"This is something we are helping our clients to focus on in the medtech and pharma sectors. Through our technology teams, we are collaborating across industry and research, to develop new ways of working.  Some of the latest technologies – robotics, AR/VR - are already helping to streamline project delivery processes. We are also combining lean project principles with digital project delivery for greater efficiencies beyond the project itself." said Sean Coombs, PM Group
