Collaboration is the collective work of two or more individuals where the work is undertaken with a sense of shared purpose and direction, that is attentive and responsive to the environment.

A collaborative work system (CWS) is any organizational unit that emerges any time that collaboration takes place.

In most organizations collaboration occurs naturaly, but ill-defined work practices tend to create barriers to naturally ocurring collaboration. The result is a loss of decision-making quality and time. Well designed collaborative working environments not only overcome these natural barriers to communication, they establish a cooperative work culture that becomes an integral part of  the organizations' DNA.

Our sharp focus on cooperative learning increases and improves the collaborative capabilities of any type of organization. Combined with appropriate group support technology, these capabilities can become a unique competitive advantage that you can use internally or resell to your customers.
