Telecommunications is imperative to virtual teams. Without telecommunications, the internet, wireless, and mobile technologies, virtual teams would cease to exist There are many digital media collaboration platforms that can allow virtual team members to share documents, have discussion, share knowledge, and manage projects across locations and teams. One digital media application is called Basecamp, which is a virtual project management platform that is easy to use and can be organized by specific topic, message, or subject matter. Another digital media platform is Zoho, which is a CRM tool that provides collaboration both internally and externally. It runs on the cloud and is helpful for virtual teams on the go. Campfire is another platform that sets up chat rooms for real time collaboration. Furthermore, these forms of digital media allow team members to not feel isolated and solve many problems in terms of communicating, generating and sharing knowledge, and project

This paper will review the benefits of utilizing a collaboration site, the ability to manage people and deliverables and the important features a collaboration site such as SharePoint, can bring to an organization.

Project management and by extension portfolio management are curious disciplines. They attempt to present simple methodologies for guiding an activity (or group thereof) through all its stages from inception to completion, within defined cost and time boundaries. Many of

In general project development is changing, from large industrial construction projects to focusing on projects that bring results right to the bottom line by delivering greater efficiencies and cost cutting measures to organizations. Completion is now King in many industries, with healthcare a shining example where service efficiencies and cost cutting are driving the need for Project Management services at an unprecedented rate.

This assignment consists of four tasks – evaluation of collaborative tools (blackboard, social media, and online calendar) of a new project named accounting database creation using Microsoft Access 2010 of Reliable Software Ltd; estimate efforts of new project components based on the past data; analysis data for making conclusions of concerned components; and contingency plan development.

Technologies are increasingly being relied on to streamline communication, collaboration and also drastically reduce costs of operations. As travel costs have continued to escalate, companies are increasingly relying on digital and Web-based forms of communication. One of the most rapidly growing continues to be the use of Web conferencing or teleconferencing. It is estimated that nearly 15 million small and medium businesses in the U.S. rely on Web conferencing on a daily basis to complete projects and build unified teams (Baez, 2012). There are nearly 25 million users of Web Conferencing solutions daily throughout the world's top 100 corporations, as these worldwide enterprises look to unify the intelligence and knowledge of their employees across departments, divisions and programs groups (Suduc, Bîzoi, Filip, 2009). Cisco has even taken Web Conferencing a step further and creating a telepresence platform that allows individuals to communicate literally as if they were in person, speaking to team rooms (Baez, 2012). While there have been many studies done on the relative merits of these systems, the most telling are the Return on Investment (ROI) analyses completed, which consistently show Web conferencing systems generate positive Return on Investment in two years or less in the majority of instances (Suduc, Bîzoi, Filip, 2009).

Growing project complexity demands more efficient way to manage communication and workflows. Collaboration became central to the PM and having a software that allows project artifacts to be created easily shared and updated , that provides web-based access and critical function such as automatic distribution and notification are crucial to enhance the productivity . Agile project management that has been given as much attention in the recent years is in growing popularity for the next decades. Slightly updated, agile project management would take a hybrid form. Therefore, project team is willing to combine agile with a traditional principles of PM to create personalized hybrids. As before, the central point of Project Management Offices (PMO) attention remains the question of measurements the effectiveness and result of the project. Previously, the main focus was on input factors (reduced time and cost), today the attention is given to the output factor-recipient or client. The new definition of project success is that project can exceed its time and cost estimates so long as the clients determines that it is successful by whatever criteria they use. Thus, the project value is determined by the “recipient” –not by “provider” (Ward, 2012 citied from O’Sheedy, 2012).

Ever since the beginning of the Internet, technology has presented itself as a valuable tool for enhancing collaborative efforts among organizations. In fact, the origins of the Internet came from the need to collaborate between research and development institutions and the military (Sutton, 2004). However, as the Internet continues to evolve, recent hardware and software innovations enable collaboration at an unprecedented level. This paper will explore an example solution that can resolve some of the current collaboration challenges for a U.S. Army organization, a cost-to-benefit analysis of implementing the technology, and some of the concerns that the organization must address before and after fielding the tool.

A technology solution suggested by Lee and Yu (2012, p. 82) is the web-based Project Management Information System (PMIS), which although not guaranteed to deliver project performance outcomes, is recognised as a vital tool to improving the probability of doing so. The construction industry is highlighted by (Liberatore and Pollack Jackson (2004, p. 170) as one with high usage of the most sophisticated project management information systems,
