RF Again Named ‘World Leader in Digital Collaboration’

Use of Microsoft Teams for Knowledge Sharing and Project Delivery

March 2020 | Dallas, TexasSWOOP Analytics has released the world’s first Microsoft Teams Benchmarking report, highlighting RealFoundations’ use of Teams for knowledge sharing and project delivery while recognizing the firm again as a “World Leader in Collaboration”.

The benchmarking report includes analytics gathered during a 12-week study of 15 organizations, spanning a variety of industries, sizes and geographies, focusing on the interactions of over 47,000 personnel working across 5,300+ Teams. Topics such as emerging best (and worst) practices are emphasized in the report, as well as the value proposition for implementing enterprise collaborative tools for productivity and efficiency. The “Best Practice Case Study” on page 18 features RealFoundations’ enterprise adoption of Microsoft Teams and Yammer for daily work delivery.

Yammer and Teams are RealFoundations’ primary collaborative tools – Yammer being used for knowledge-sharing efforts, and Teams being used for defined project work – used across RealFoundations’ global offices and at client office locations. As early adopters of Microsoft Teams, RealFoundations practitioners embrace the culture of collaboration, leveraging Teams as the place for day-to-day work. Regardless of where personnel are actively working, Teams is the place where insightful discussions, content creation, knowledge management, initiative planning, video conferencing and project decisions are shared through the transparent practice of ‘Working Out Loud’.

RealFoundations was recognized by SWOOP Analytics in 2017 as a ‘World Leader in Enterprise Social Networking Adoption’ and again in 2018 as a ‘World Leader of Best Practices in Yammer’. In 2019, RealFoundations’ Director Naomi Souza was invited to participate at the 2019 KMWorld (Knowledge Management and Enterprise Solutions) Conference, presenting RealFoundations’ view and lessons learned during a session titled: Accelerating Collaboration: Platforms & Strategies.
