Software tools to aid resource management
The EC-funded SYMPHONY project sought to help companies realise their potential by assisting them in internalising expertise that lie outside their boundaries. This is achieved through the formation of successful collaborations and expansion of the company's knowledge base. Project partners developed a new software solution to address these issues. The SymResources software-based methodology has been developed as a unique platform to manage mobility and intangible resources. It is suitable for firms of all sizes and that maintain a strong knowledge and skills focus. The use of the SymResources software allows the redesign process of collaborative organisations and allows the integration of seemingly independent components. It is suitable for business development functions and for the creation of value in a variety market conditions. Copyright to the software application has been registered and the intellectual property rights have been passed on to Harmony Solutions SA for further exploitation. The SymResources platform poses distinct user-friendly traits and can be accessed over the web, bringing its overall cost down.
