Project Platform

The use case

Project teams often need a directory where the project assets can be saved. Typical project assets can be:

• General administrative correspondence
• Contracts
• Source files of the items which are being created during the project
• The files of the finished items
• Notes
• List of TODOs
• Presentation of what the project is about
• The project Charta

The solution out of the boxxd

The Project°Boxxd offers a structured place as well as various tools to support the team with their work. It has:

• A central Home file to document important information for the team and others, where the important documents can be listed, definition of the project charta, roles, responsibilities.
• On a file server, the Home page acts as a mini website.
• A Talk directory where project presentations can be saved and be magically presented when needed.
• TODO as a long term memory of what to do,
• Jotter of things to think about in the future,
• Works directory where the administrative documentation can be saved
• Sources directory where the source files i.e. drawing files, CAD files, software code, can be placed.
• Items directory where the finished items can be saved.
• Archive directory where old files can be placed.
• Pre-configured set of directories based on the Value Domain Stack which can be used.
• Templates to boost your efficiency.
• An internal Help and FAQ which you can modify to help new teamers.

Extendable

The Home can easily be made into a quick public website by uploading it to a hosting server.

The boxxd can also be extended with a website plugin, so that the team can show others what the project is about, blog, inform about its status, deliverables, etc.
