Document Management: Collaborative Working Environments



Collaborative Working Environments - Using document management for projects and programmesPublished: 2008
Type: Business guidance
Area:
Document management

Summary


The fourth paper in the series, Collaborative Working Environments, aims to help public and private sector organisations running projects and programmes that face the challenges of forming teams across disciplines, on different sites, or working across time zones.

Collaborative Working Environments (CWEs) provide common resources such as shared workspaces to enable teams to work together on common projects without necessarily being co-located.

CWEs use a variety of technologies including: e-mail, instant messaging, application sharing, video conferencing, workflow, and social networking tools (e.g. wikis, blogs, discussion lists and chat rooms).

A key component of a CWE is a collaborative workspace which is defined as an inter-connected environment in which all the participants in dispersed locations can access and interact with each other just as inside a single entity.
