Samuel, thanks, you are right! I think to connect information is important for good collaboration. Information models are the most important engine for people’s collaboration. -Oleg

Nice post Oleg. This is an important point to stress. What I see is that most organization focus on the information (or data) in the formal systems, such as product info management and ERP systems, but don’t pay much attention to other, usually very important, information. This information resides in the Sharepoints, corporate wiki’s, (file shares…), etc. Linking all these types of info together is crucial for good PLM collaboration.

Jim. Thanks! I see transformation of Social networks in something I called Collaborative networks is probably next big step in collaboration. Current workflow based communication just won’t work. -Oleg

Oleg,
I agree that the push into social networks and the ability to tie collaboration more closely with underlying data (and processes) are core building blocks to the future of collaboration in PLM. Nicely said.
