Collaboration

Whilst there are many other solutions that provide this functionality in a more generic sense there are various eSourcing tools that can provide "Collaboration" in a limited capacity. From an eSourcing perspective, this software can help the supply community in several ways including:

• Allow buyers and potentially numerous vendors to develop a
robust complex specification by providing the means to share information in a secure environment

• Provide a complete audit trial of all changes and developments to a specification

• Permit several tiers of suppliers to contribute towards part of a specification without seeing the full design

• Allowing vendors to work on / visualise CAD/ CAM drawings simultaneously
