摘要:The dependence of today's collaborative projects on knowledge acquisition and information disseminationemphasizes the importance of minimizing communication breakdowns. However, as organizations areincreasingly relying on virtual teams to deliver better and faster results, communication issues come to theforefront of project managers' concerns. This is particularly palpable in software development projectswhich are increasingly virtual and knowledge-consuming as they require continuous generation andupgrade of shared information and knowledge. In a previous work, we proposed an SNA-BI based system(Covirtsys) that supplements the Analytics modules of the collaborative platform in order to offer acomplementary analysis of communication flows through a network perspective. This paper concerns theapplication of this system on a software development project virtual team and shows how it can bring newinsights that could help overcome communication issues among team members.
