Collaboration coming to the enterprise
Let's face it. Work is changing. First off, there's more of it. Secondly, we're expected to access the office at any time from anywhere and everywhere-- while on vacation, from home. When you combine this with the fact that companies are becoming more decentralized, you get a rising case for deploying collaboration tools. That is why we are seeing large companies and government agencies adopt new Web-based procedures and workflow strategies to maintain high levels of operational efficiency. The FAA recently implemented IBM Lotus Connections, a new Web-based tool that combines record-keeping, blogging, bookmarking and more. The FAA is using the technology as part of its Disaster Response Team, which allows employees to quickly file receipts, voicemail and instant messages to a central archive in case there is an emergency and employees have to buy items quickly. Analysts at Gartner expect to see organizations in the public and private sectors continue using tools like this. By 2009, approximately 30 percent of all Fortune 1000 companies will have enterprise social software platforms in place.
