Gearing Up For IP Collaboration (from Networking Views)

Overview Collaboration between organizations supported by IP networking can yield substantial productivity rewards. But in this Expert Perspectives article from AT&T's Networking Views publication, Andy Woodfield, Partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers' performance improvement consulting practice, points out that such collaboration needs preparation.

Senior executives and IT professionals need to discuss the business potential of collaborative IP-based technology, and security must be assessed early in preparation. Intellectual property issues must be resolved to make collaboration work. It is also important to establish which organization leads the collaboration.
