In his new role, Buldo will spearhead optimizing workflows and improving efficiency across all departments while overseeing resource allocation, ensuring alignment with MHS Architecture’s business priorities and providing strategic guidance to directors, associates and project managers, according to a news release. His position will also involve managing operational risks, establishing robust quality control measures and maintaining strong partnerships with external collaborators.
