Story
Inside Perkins and Will, documentation used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in industrials groups working out of the United States. Specialists and new hires needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Perkins and Will uses Box Shield from Box as the working layer for institutional knowledge. Box is a content cloud for storing, sharing, and governing enterprise files, with workflow and AI features for knowledge work. The practical change is simple: documentation has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Perkins and Will gets from Box is a durable place to run documentation and a way for specialists and new hires to see the same institutional knowledge at the same time.
