7 Tips to Enhance Collaboration for Work-from-Home production teams

Covid-19 is forcing even reluctant businesses to adopt remote work policies. Due to the dynamic nature of production, efficient real-time communication and flow of information within distributed teams can be the difference between successful on-time delivery and failure. Here are 7 ways you can use Teamium for your distributed teams to collaborate effectively:

1.        View all the important information in one place on your dashboard
Get an up to the minute view of your project status, milestones, task %age completion, deadlines, resource utilization, and running costs on your role-based dashboards.

2.        Use built-in chat message to instantly communicate with your project team
Create a new project chat group automatically and instantly notify every assigned member with chat and calendar invitation

3.        Need to move or expand your production schedule?
Move the entire project to another date with the click of a button. Notify everyone automatically of schedule changes, view and proactively resolve any newly created scheduling conflicts in the system.

4.        What about any resulting cost changes?
When you move or stretch production schedules or need more resources than planned, the system keeps track of changing costs with its built-in rate cards and labor rules to give you the most accurate and real-time view of changed costs.

5.        Need supervisor approval if cost changes exceed a threshold?
Make effective use of automated or push notifications to proactively prevent budget overruns with fast-tracking e-signed approvals

6.        Need to send a daily project report to your senior executives?
Use the automated reporting feature to deliver a pre-formatted report every morning on their dashboard or by email

7.        Achieve better distribution of workload with group assignments
Assign a task to a group rather than an individual member and let them self-assign based on their interests, skills, workload, and availability
