Thats where a content management tool comes in. Since all you were left with were questions, the 5 essentials of communication that a content management tool provides are simply answers. Answers to the questions Where is version X stored? When was version Y created? Who created version Z? What changes were made to these versions? and How am I supposed to bring them together?
Here is another question for you: Do these questions sound familiar? I thought so. But when answers are available, businesses want them. So, Adam Smiths invisible hand has reached into the market again to create the content management tool, often referred to as Groupware. Lets take a look at how exactly the content management tool provides the answers.
Where?
The content management tool, or groupware, needs to contain Digital Thread technology, which places information in the metadata of an electronic document--this includes the MS applications most businesses use--and tracks the document and its versions across email your desktop and servers, literally threading together the document versions. You will always know where a document is stored.

A word of caution: The market understands the need for a content management tool. This is obvious to anyone who attempts to sift through the 20 million indexed pages under content management tool in Google. Not all of the content management tools are created to handle the ad hoc business collaboration process. In fact, most are created to manage, store, and file documents. The technologies and information mentioned in this article should simplify the sifting and introduce you and your business to a new way of answering the confusion of ad hoc with the 5 essentials of communication.
