Tools such as Internet based communication, cross-organizational integrated processes, and advanced Relationship Management systems offer unparalleled access to information and transactions by organizations, their business partners, their customers, and their competitors.

Good people with good skills are essential prerequisites to success. Here too, through knowledge management technologies, like education (e-learning, just-in-time education, distance learning, mentoring) organizations are seeking to enhance their competitive positioning. This section from Insurance-Canada.ca will note some of the processes, from job-hunting and posting to skills enhancement, which are being developed.
