Team # 765 -- Geoscience Staff: Files Management
Earth and Mineral Sciences
August 2006
Objective
Department files were in disarray and it was difficult to cover for someone who was out or when there was turnover. Also, there was a shared network drive, but shared files were hard to locate. The poor organization led to multiple copies of the same files, individuals keeping on their hard drives copies of files that were to be shared, and general chaos.Team Membership
