It focuses on strategies for overcoming obstacles in the implementation process, and measures that can be taken to enable effective use. Among the key features are:
- Overview of the current state of the area of collaboration technologies;
- A review of empirical research and a taxonomy of implementation factors;
- Six case studies covering different collaboration technologies and organisational settings;
- Practical solutions and guidelines for the implementation team.

Internasjonale team av ‘digitale frivillige’ bearbeider og analyserer informasjonen i sanntid og oppretter krisekart som stotter det formelle nodhjelpsapparatet. Denne artikkelen presenterer en undersokelse av hvordan sosiale medier benyttes av norske frivillige organisasjoner i forbindelse med krisehandtering, og hvilke muligheter som eksisterer for utvidet bruk. Intervjuer av representanter for de frivillige organisasjonene viser at bruken av sosiale medier i dag hovedsakelig er begrenset til enveis informasjon til publikum for profilering og synliggjoring av aktiviteter. De frivillige organisasjonene opererer pa oppdrag fra politiet eller andre nodetater, og vurderer informasjonsinnsamling fra sosiale medier som oppdragsgivers ansvar. Flere av organisasjonene ser ogsa et potensiale i at informasjon fra publikum via sosiale medier kan gi et verdifullt og effektivt bidrag til a fa oppdatert oversikt over situasjonen. Artikkelen diskuterer muligheten for a opprette en ressursgruppe av frivillige som kan bista organisasjonene og nodetatene med analyse av informasjon fra sosiale medier.

In multi-agency operations, such as extreme weather events, the involved first responders manage the event with different mandates, objectives, and tools which can make it challenging to build a COP. Effective collaboration requires a common situational understanding, based on knowledge about each other’s responsibilities and tasks, mutual respect and trust, as well as common communication tools for emergency communication and information sharing. This paper argues that the COP serves as a basis for deciding on further action, and thus represents a first stage in the process of establishing common situational understanding among the involved actors. The empirical basis for the study includes interviews with Norwegian emergency management stakeholders, analysis of audio-logs, and review of public documents. Based on the analysis we present a framework comprising activities and processes involved in establishing a COP as a basis for common situational understanding.

Through this the paper aims at stimulating reflection and discussion among participants in the ISD process, and a more explicit awareness of the perspective applied in this process. While technological and organisational imperative perspectives are still dominating, the paper argues for a stronger emphasis on the different variants of the emergent perspective. This implies a stronger focus on organisational context in the different stages of the ISD process, including analysis of cultural and political aspects, and a view of the organisational change processes as comprising both planned and emergent changes.
