Work Unleashed: The CA Department of General Services Division of the State Architect gets schools built no matter what

In the "Work Unleashed" series, Box executives and customers explore adapting to new work norms, featuring insights from the California Department of General Services' Division of the State Architect (DSA). The DSA, responsible for overseeing school design and construction in California, transitioned from in-person operations to a cloud-based, electronic plan review (EPR) system during the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift was facilitated by tools such as Box, providing a central platform for virtual collaboration and document sharing, which proved crucial as stakeholders needed to communicate and approve plans remotely. The use of a diverse range of cloud-based communication tools, including Skype, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams, enabled the DSA to maintain effective collaboration with clients and partners, ultimately saving time and reducing costs. The transition also led to improved internal communication, with many staff reporting better connectivity and efficiency despite the shift to telework. Beth Sanchez from the DSA highlights the importance of planning ahead and embracing technology to enhance business resilience and adaptability amid unforeseen challenges.
