Interunit Collaboration

Interunit Collaboration is important among corporations and large organizations that own the large chunks of the market in the particular service or industry they are in.  The large organizations realize the importance of collaborating to achieve common goals. The goals might pertain to cost saving, better decision making, increasing revenue, innovation or enhancing their current capacities.  In many cases these companies have already acquired all of the the physical assets that exist that do not already belong to one of their large competitors. In these cases the companies change their attention to knowledge managing, creating, and sharing.  Interunit collaboration is done between a two companies or maybe a few others but the number has to be kept low.  This in order for the organization to gain a competive edge over another competing company.  If a company analyzes their situation and find that they are better alone than in collaborative unit than they should participate in one.  Organzations should only participate if it will give them an edge.
