The Information Workplace is moving from vision to reality.

IBM, a strategic Information Workplace vendor for many organizations, has pushed the envelope with its soon to be released case management solution, IBM Case Manager. Combining document management with robust social, collaboration, and communication capabilities, IBM has integrated a broad array of functionality from its software portfolio to provide a unique business solution. In the end, the whole suite offers far more value than the component parts.
