Julie Barber
: I think this is too narrow, because it could be cross-departmental or inter-company in this case and project is the usual word in English rather than mission

cross-functional mission
embraces various functions in the enterprise (HR, IT, Sales, marketing, etc.)
1 hr
multi-disciplinary assignments
have heard this used in several companies
1 day 4 hrs
extra duties
I think that what this means is: the duties of every project manager is to efficiently manage the works for the company he/she represents. However should some other problem arise or be there a need for a solution derived or created from other project manager(s) working for other construction companies, he/she has the obligation to help solve it. In other words '' missions transversales'' <=> extra duties or duties that are supposed not to be part of their jobs but can't refuse to do.
