There is a Web 2.0 tool from IBM named Lotus Quickr that supports strategic decision making. The figure at right shows icons for some of the functions in Quickr. The tool helps strategic decisions by providing users the ability to share content collaboratively. Other features of Quickr that support strategic decisions are the shared repository capable of holding and organizing all types of documents and linking to web sites and playing sound files. Quickr makes use of wikis and blogs and allows ATOM and RSS feeds. A final feature enabling strategic decision making is that documents may be checked in and out of libraries thus maintaining version control. A number of podcasts are available via RSS feed describing the use of Quickr for decision making in the list at right.
Quickr can be accessed from Microsoft Office, Lotus Sametime or Notes, and from Windows Explorer making it readily available to users with straight forward integration into business processes.
