We have good experience from working with Semcon and look forward to this continuing in future. Banverket is facing many exciting challenges where PROPS will help us to be more effective,” says Eva Martinsson, divisional manager at Banverket “We are very proud and happy about this new agreement,” says Catharina Sjögren MD of Semcon Project Management. “We look forward to continuing our joint aim of making project work more streamlined.” Semcon Project Management aims at creating greater profitability in project portfolios, as well as in individual projects. Project work is much more than just the individual project. Putting customer benefits first, finding the right project, and allocating resources optimally – all this is done so that we can create profitability and effectiveness.
