Collaboration
WIKIPEDIA DEFINITIONCollaboration is a recursive process where two
or more people or organisations work together to realise shared goals.
In particular, teams that work collaboratively can obtain greater resources, recognition and reward when facing competition for finite resources.

Technology Based Collaboration
![Page 4: Powering Collaboration. Collaboration WIKIPEDIA DEFINITION Collaboration is a recursive process where two or more people or organisations work together](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032707/56649e535503460f94b4984b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Problems
• Infrastructure complexity prevents technology based collaboration between organisations:– Different technology standards– Different software releases– Different suppliers– Directory management issues– Security concerns
