2.3: Collaboration Toolset

Collaboration Toolset

Other Information:

Project teams today move faster and work under more pressure than ever before. To expedite information sharing and to accelerate decision making, teams are using new tools – tools that are changing our definition of the workplace. These knowledge management tools include: • Document collaboration, • Web-based file and document sharing, • Online whiteboards, • Internet presentations, • Chat and instant messaging, • Discussion groups and Bulletin Boards, and • Distance learning for education and training. These tools fall under the general heading of collaboration tools or knowledge management software. OPIC is moving to a more Oracle-centric environment. OPIC must select a collaboration toolset that will fully support the Oracle E-Business Suite. The toolset must also support the Oracle E-Business Suite middle-tier software. A review of all appropriate toolsets will be performed in 2008 and the toolset will be selected based on this review.
