Constructech
Recognizes Operations Applications Team Leader for Her Role in
Bringing New Technology to All Rosendin Electric Regions.
San
Jose, CA, USA (September 22, 2015) -- Rosendin
Electric, one of the nation's largest private
electrical contractors and an employee-owned company, is proud to
announce that Diya Peter, Operations Applications Lead for the
company, has been recognized by Constructech Magazine with a 2015
Women In Construction Award. The Award is presented each year to the
most influential women shaping the construction industry.
Ms.
Peter was selected as one of a select group of women who are having
an impact on construction. In her role as Operations Applications
Lead, Ms. Peter has been responsible for the design, development, and
deployment of all applications used by Rosendin Electric's Field and
Operations team. Much of her responsibility includes implementing new
technology to Rosendin Electric's regional offices as well as field
training. Most recently, she has been implementing a new
time-tracking application designed for field payroll and time
management, and deploying construction project management platforms
companywide.
"Diya
is an evangelist for new ideas and new technologies and has been
instrumental in bringing the latest applications to the field,"
said Sam Lamonica, CIO of Rosendin Electric. "Her experience and
passion have been instrumental in gaining the confidence of our field
personnel and regional managers and getting them to embrace the
latest technology tools."
Ms.
Peter has more than seven years of experience in developing and
managing IT systems for the construction industry and she serves as a
mentor to other women, drawing from her extensive experience in IT
and construction to counsel them on future career opportunities. She
is also active with an industry-related CIO Scholarship Fund, which
has been tasked with starting a Young Professionals Group to support
MIS students.
"I
am honored to receive a Women in Construction Award," said Ms.
Peter. "Women are still a minority in the construction industry,
and this award not only speaks to the value of my contribution, but
it honors all of the women who are changing the face of
construction."
According
to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, women only make up 8.9
percent of the construction workforce, and even a smaller percentage
contributes to construction technology. Constructech's Women in
Construction awards honor those women who are not only contributors
to the construction industry, but also whose passion and leadership
are shaping the future of construction.
