Virtual web offices came to being as a result of the need for better
team collaboration. Internal Collaboration involves collaboration
within the company throughout the organizational units. It
especially involves the collaboration of teams in projects, company
wide document management, content controlled processes, specific
information and communication, Publishing, Social Networking and
Knowledge Management.
With increasing pressure on workers productivity, most companies
realise that their Intranet could be a valuable tool for increasing
productivity and capturing and securing the knowledge of its
valuable staff.
The new generation Intranets are 100% web based which allows secure
and personalized access for every employee to their content and
applications everywhere. Collaboration technologies and workflow
capabilities are important aspects of Intranet environments.
Virtual web offices using collaboration technologies enable
individual users, such as employees or business partners to easily
create and maintain project teams, regardless of geographic
indication. These technologies facilitate collaborative, team-based
content creation through functionality such as discussion threads,
whiteboard and annotation capabilities, instant messaging and chat,
real-time meeting functionality, and virtual workspaces.
Collaboration technology can deliver three major classes of
functionality: communication channel facilitation, lifecycle
management, and project facilitation.
Organizations typically deploy those technologies to save time,
streamline processes, cut costs, and improve time to market.
Workflow capabilities enable organizations to manage the content
creation, management, approval, and lifecycle of the content through
retention and disposition, as well as the business processes
surrounding the use of content. This technology provides a tool for
automating formerly manual – and many times paper-based – business
processes, as well as for handling the interrelationships between
process components, participants, procedures, information, tasks and
management.
