As a bonus, personal productivity will be maximized due to the integration with Microsoft Outlook and PDAs. Design and construction professionals who use the McGraw-Hill Construction Network will now be able to serve their customers more efficiently with their enhanced access to intelligence, forecasting, trend analysis, and project data.
