Collaboration management
Nowadays, collaboration management is the key to ensuring that project aims can be achieved ever more quickly and product cycles can be shortened ever further. To achieve this, sub-contractors and partners must all be integrated into a capable network. Ahead of the pack in this respect is the automotive industry, which has shown how effective collaboration management can reduce production cycles and bring complex products to the market increasingly quickly. In addition to organizational criteria, efficient collaboration management makes high demands of IT-based solutions. These enable teams and companies to work together to solve tasks cost-efficiently in the shortest possible time.
The ELO Digital Office product family provides the following components for this purpose:
1. All project and process documents are managed together - from CAD drawings through SAP document data to product and plant documentation.
2. Data replication across companies and locations, using powerful brokering technology.
3. Process and activity management for processes that go beyond corporate boundaries (such as monitoring functions that check whether distributed documents have been returns, automatic process import for received documents, etc.).
4. Support for team and group work through mobile functions and web portals.
