Abstract

The article presents a conceptual model on how technology-driven organizations may move into a paradigm of open system collaboration with others outside the place of employment.  Individuals may choose to contribute to paid and non-paid solution-boards that will serve as sources to turn tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge and allow organizations to rely on outside experts rather than a highly compensated in-house technical workforce. The open system for technology-driven organizations will allow complex problems to be solved by combining in-house and outside expertise.  The system is built around the concept of transparency and sharing to solve complex manufacturing problems, drive innovation, and foster a level global field.
