Long Description
Teamwork Information Exchange (TIE) is a complete multi-user
system designed to provide work groups with a tool to
enhance intra-group communications and improve time
management, work flow and productivity. TIE combines
electronic mail, personal time scheduling, meeting
scheduling, task management and personal to do lists into a
single fully integrated system.
TIE's electronic mail (E-Mail) subsystem differs from stand-
alone systems by combining standard e-mail capabilities with
automatic messaging. For example, when a meeting is
scheduled, rescheduled or canceled; TIE automatically
creates and sends mail messages to all attendees announcing
the status. Similarly, TIE creates mail messages to inform
appropriate users of assignment, delivery and completion of
tasks.
The Personal Schedule subsystem provides each user with a
semi-private workday scheduling system. While other users
will have access your composite daily schedule, they cannot
see the details (descriptions of individual items) in your
personal schedule. For example, if you schedule an
appointment with your doctor, other users, when scheduling a
meeting, will see only that you have reserved that time for
an appointment.
TIE's Meeting subsystem provides an automatic means of
scheduling meetings by displaying the schedules of attendees
so that you can quickly identify a time when both personnel
and meeting resources are available. An auto schedule
function is available to search all applicable schedules to
find the first time when all personnel and resources are
simultaneously available. Each time a meeting is scheduled
or rescheduled, the personal schedules of all attendees are
automatically updated and e-mail messages are automatically
sent to inform attendees of a change in their schedules.
Meeting agenda's can be reviewed on-line or printed for
distribution.
The task management subsystem is designed to track the
progress and status of work assignments and to provide an
objective means of measuring individual performance.
Effective work management requires clear communication of
the work to be performed, when it is due and how successful
performance will be measured. TIE incorporates these
elements through written assignments, specified due dates
and complete reporting of on-time performance. In addition,
the task management subsystem provides an effective means
for employees and supervisors to communicate progress on
assigned tasks.
While simple in concept, TIE's To Do subsystem can be a
powerful tool in managing your workday. By maintaining a
prioritized list of things to be done on a given workday,
you can key into those things that are the highest priority
while addressing lower priority items as time permits. To
Do items that are not completed on the day they are
scheduled are automatically moved forward until they are
completed. This way, what you didn't get around to
yesterday, won't be forgotten today.
The Report subsystem brings each of TIE's major subsystems
together to provide hard copy or on-screen information about
your schedule, work assignments, to do lists, etc.
