ARGUS Collaboration Zone™ offers an efficient process for managing communication internally and externally during the due diligence stage of a transaction. Communication and collaboration among stakeholders and service providers (brokers, valuers, attorneys, lenders, etc.) is one of the most important and costly tasks within the entire transaction process with numerous workflows, key dates and documents to manage. ARGUS Collaboration Zone allows users to:
- Set up secure, private virtual deal rooms
- Upload or download documents with user-definable permissions and security
- Audit the history and changes in every document
- Define and manage tasks among participants
- Define notifications and alerts when events or items change in the deal rooms
- Collaborate with other participates using standard Microsoft tools (e.g., Windows Live Messenger, Microsoft Outlook, etc.)
 |
Built on the robust Microsoft SharePoint platform and integrated with Microsoft Outlook and File Explorer, Collaboration Zone offers users an immediate production tool for managing transactions without a steep learning curve or costly user fees. |
