The Sum is Greater than the Whole

Crux Cybernetics is an Australian-based software company who specialises in "collaborative business management and process knowledge tools to improve workforce performance and productivity and that significantly reduce administration overheads". They have recently launched a new portal for their TeamFrame solution where they are building a library of useful documents with particular emphasis on work and resource management, collaboration, etc.

Maarten Tentij, Managing Director of Crux Cybernetics, asked if I'd like to contribute something so I forwarded him a previously unpublished article titled, The Sum is Greater than the Whole:

"Research conducted by the University of Wollongong demonstrates that one of the primary reasons that SMEs have been slow to adopt ecommerce is a reluctance to form partnerships with other businesses. But in a global, information driven economy the ability to collaborate is a key competency that every business needs. Overseas outsourcing threatens all industries – white and blue collar alike – but local companies can still compete by embedding themselves in virtual supply chains that add value through effective business collaboration. So how do we do it?"

You can read the rest on the TeamFrame portal. If you have a topic suggestion or just want to learn more about TeamFrame I'm sure Maarten and the team at Crux would be pleased to hear from you.
