Digital Collaboration Groups
Transform the way you work with colleagues across the public sector
One of the biggest issues for public sector organisations is the ability to collaborate across different organisations and departments. Using email and your own internal IT systems is only effective for collaboration within your organisation. However, when the need arises to work across organisations or departments with suppliers, clients, and partners, a digital collaboration tool becomes invaluable.
Knowledge Hub’s digital collaboration groups offer free or low-cost collaboration spaces specifically designed to help external organisations and departments communicate, collaborate, and connect effectively with stakeholders, partners, and colleagues.
These groups enable the secure exchange of knowledge and experience within communities of practice, project groups, and workspaces.

Bringing everyone together with a range of collaborative features, collaboration groups can be configured to your specific business purpose, such as communities of practice, project groups, working groups and document stores.
With minimal IT training, your teams can quickly set up a new collaboration group and begin working across organisations in minutes. To ensure your data is safe, Knowledge Hub's security credentials are independently audited.
