The work on this new platform is based on the Sogeti TeamPark® approach, specially created to manage client projects of collaboration platform implementation.

| Luc-François Salvador | “Our people are our most valuable asset. As a multi-national company with employees located around the world, from India to the US, we needed a powerful tool to connect our people and provide them with a social platform to share information and collaborate,” said Luc-François Salvador, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Sogeti Group. “We chose Lotus Connections because it is a powerful collaboration platform that goes way beyond simple sharing documents, and furthermore, it is people-centric rather than project- or document-centric. We believe that this is the future of collaboration and we are pleased to be at the forefront of this new trend.” |
