Only tools that meet the evaluation criteria and have the potential to transform the way staff <strong>communicate<\/strong>, <strong>collaborate<\/strong> or <strong>coordinate<\/strong> will be moved into \u2018Core Digital Workplace toolset\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Once a tool is promoted into the \u2018Core Digital Workplace toolset\u2019 the Project will work with staff from across the University to drive adoption and ensure the tools are used effectively to improve <strong>communication<\/strong>, <strong>collaboration<\/strong> and <strong>coordination.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the Project team, the Trello launch is just the first major milestone. The team will now look at evaluating other tools to determine if they are suitable for promotion into the \u2018Core Digital Workplace toolset\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nThis is where YOU, the rest of IDS come in\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The evaluation process will need to look at how well the tools meet our customers\u2019 User Stories. But it will also need to look at platform and application integration, supportability, security and licensing among other technical considerations. This means we\u2019ll be engaging with many teams across IDS in the evaluation process.<\/p>\n<p>The success of the Trello launch has been due to a collaborative effort between IDS staff, and the many teams in the wider Flinders community that have taken up Trello and participated in our Trello pilot and evaluation. IDS has always been a supportive environment, where people go above and beyond to help the customer and we\u2019ve seen plenty of this in recent months with everybody who has helped make the launch event a success and got behind the \u2018Digital Workplace\u2019 concept.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you again for all your support in the lead up to the launch. We can\u2019t wait to show our University colleagues how they can thrive in the Flinders \u2018Digital Workplace\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intended audience: IDS staff After many months of hard work, and the support of Client Services and the Digital Platform Operations teams, the Digital Workplace Project [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1258,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[91],"class_list":["post-21","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-digital-business-services"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1258"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.flinders.edu.au\/ids-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
