214. SAP StreamWork is a new type of product:Collaborative Decision-making “ Bans on internal travel because of the difficult economy will force many companies to find a new way to work, collaborate and make decisions. We believe the information technology market will respond to this need with systems that foster a CDM (collaborative decision-making) process …Organizations already use collaborative or social software to keep informed about what colleagues are doing and thinking, and to mobilize them for urgent projects. Designing collaborative environments that enable decision makers to discuss an issue, brainstorm options, evaluate their pros and cons, and agree on a course of action is a natural evolution of this trend. Adding social software elements (such as tagging, recommendations, ratings and contextual information) enriches the history contained within the collaborative environment, making it (and the results derived from it) more useful in the future. Kurt Schlegel, Rita L. Sallam, Tom Austin, Carol Rozwell, Gartner The Rise of Collaborative Decision Making, 04/2009
226. Press: SAP StreamWork is for business “ “ I can see these types of tools becoming well-accepted among manufacturers who, on a daily basis, need to respond quickly and collaboratively to exceptional situations such as disruptions in demand or production. This type of tool would also be useful in spreading best practices among plants in a global network. …tools like [SAP StreamWork] should go a long way toward erasing the false separation between enterprise applications and social networking platforms. Jeff Moad, Managing Automation SAP’s newly released [SAP StreamWork] – a free cutting edge collaborative decision-making tool – adds much needed structure to the idea of real-time collaboration, made popular by Google Wave, and improves upon the functionality of popular web-based team collaboration tools like Basecamp. Jennifer Van Grove, Mashable.com “ Business ready? It’s much more business-minded than Google Wave. Google said it didn’t want to put too many constraints on Wave, so people would have a very flexible starting point. As a result, there are a few cool plug-ins, but it's not immediately obvious how organizations could use it. That’s not the case with [SAP StreamWork]. Just start an activity and peruse the tools, and you’ll immediately see how it would fit in with business actions, meeting planning, etc. Loraine Lawson, IT BusinessEdge
227. Customers “ SAP Streamwork has changed the way that Manna on Main Street (a soup kitchen and kitchen cupboard) works with a team of volunteers. We use it as a way for our staff to connect with the board of directors and supporters in respect to our key committees. The tool is easy to use and has been adopted by participants with high and very low technology skills and background. Hopefully, this collaboration will lead to our goal to move to a new building and most importantly to support our community mission that ‘everyone might be fed’. Tom Allebach, Executive Director, Manna on Main Street, Lansdale, Pennsylvania www.mannaonmain.org “ We have a staff of volunteers who use SAP StreamWork to stay connected, to stay on top of projects and assignments and to share information in an organized fashion. The tool is easy for everyone to use, including a staffer who is 73 and typically uncomfortable around technology. Christine Benton, Public Relations, The Stream, San Diego, CA www.thestream.org “ …volunteers can log onto the organization’s [SAP] StreamWork site and check the status of the event, find out what needs to be done and share information. “There is a discussion section for everything from sponsors to food and where we get our rented supplies,” [Sydney] Richardson, volunteer for Paws in the City, says. “In addition, we can create links to websites where we have found good prices on items we need to buy, or other useful information.” An integrated spreadsheet allows users to create lists of contacts or any other type of record, and a timeline tool helps the group keep track of target milestones. Collaboration: A New Picture Develops KMWorld, Judith Lamont, Ph.D October 29, 2010
228. Customers (continued) “ SAP StreamWork is a centralized resource for our core project team – including employees and contractors - to come together, share relevant documents, and continue discussions that spill over from live meetings. The business tools embedded in SAP StreamWork allow us to split projects into tasks, assign due dates, and check items off when they're done. It enables group consensus and helps the team quickly identify next steps. Steven Burnett, Senior Account Manager, VML “ “…I was excited to find a strong Web-based collaborative decision-making product that's accessible to a start-up like TastingTable.com. We had been using a variety of tools and services to help with file sharing and exchange, but nothing that helped us manage and organize complex tasks that involved a lot of stakeholders. “We use SAP StreamWork for everything from posting the next meeting agenda for the team to preview, to gathering input from across the business areas on key decisions using the product's voting and commenting functionality. I was able to…prompt the team to provide updates on relevant KPIs like subscriber growth and revenue forecasts directly within the SAP StreamWork activity. That transparency into our company metrics across the team enables us to make smarter, faster decisions. All of the information that went into those decisions is archived right in the SAP StreamWork activity for later reference.” Geoff Bartakovics, CEO, Tasting Table “ We used SAP StreamWork as a very tight team working on a confidential announcement. We had many contributors to materials from public relations, investor relations and government relations among other fields who were providing feedback and edits to the materials, so the records on who contributed what and when helped with version management and to keep the latest available at all times. This was particularly helpful, to have the latest documents immediately retrievable whenever senior executives needed them. Using SAP StreamWork, we were able to develop 13 key materials to support the announcement, and the activity has now become a best practice template for similar endeavors. Christine Benton, Director, Burson-Marsteller
