The Home file is a html file which can easily be edited and where a synopsis of the project and directory of important documents can be shown. ## Slideshow Slideshows can be shown in the browser of important documents. The slideshows are stored in the _Talk_ directory. --- ## Value Domains The Works directory is where team members can collect thoughts, processs documents, etc. To help segregate this information, the Works is structured into Value Domains. The Value Domains are similar to typical departments in organisations (with a couple of exceptions). .pull-left[ * Ax Asset (CM, items) * Bx Build (Fabrication, Mfg) * Cx Customer (Adm, 1st Lvl) * Dx Design (Content, SWDev) * Ex Enterprise (BizDev, legal) * Fx Finance * Gx Grid (IT, Geo facilities) * Hx Human (HRM) * Ix Incentive * Jx Joined Partie (Partners) * Kx Knowledge (BPM, DataMgt) * Lx Logistic (Sourcing) ] .pull-right[ * Mx Market (Marketing, Sales) * Ox Orchestration (Proj Mgt) * Px Product (PLM) * Qx Quality (Generic SLAs) * Rx Resource * Sx Service, * Tx Teach * Ux User experience * Vx Value (User, social) * Wx World (Toplevel, CEO) * Xx eXchange (with others) ] --- class: middle center inverse More information at [Boxxd.org](http://www.boxxd.org)
