Team-work systems – the Advatech vision
The purpose of implementing a system of team-work and a system to manage information, documents, and workflow into an organization, is to increase the workers’ productivity by improving their efficiency. This goal may be attained by the efficient management of information, or streamlining the information flow in order to finish processing the information more quickly, and in this way benefit the end-user (co-worker or customer.)
Company team work/information management systems should automate processes run within the company, support performing complex procedures (e.g. ISO-related), manage contacts with the customers, help to develop a knowledge base of the company etc.
Features of an efficient team-work / information management system include:
- security of the organization and their workers, as well as companies and people co-operating with the organization
- availability – suitably authorized persons must be able to access information quickly and reliably
- confidentiality – information must be securely protected against the access of un-authorized persons
- reduction of the operating costs of the organization (e.g. by means of reducing the number of traditionally stored paper documents)
- saving time which would be necessary to make decisions while minimizing uncertainty
- savings room which would be necessary to store selected traditional paper documents
- centralization (all data are kept in a single database)
- optimization of information utilization in the process of reaching organizational targets
- opportunity to use previously gained knowledge and a faster learning pace
- opportunity to trace information flow and unanimously determine who is responsible in each processing phase
- integration of information originating from various sources regardless of the media it resides in (e.g. using a fax-mail server or some scanners).
