Abstract :
COBRA will report on EEA experience/best practice; identify `helps and hinders´; report on the teleworking, technology, infrastructure, environmental, economic, energy, etc., constraints, opportunities, implications and requirements; and disseminate the findings. It will consolidate alternative approaches to redesign/re-engineering and new tools to produce a practical and comprehensive manual that ensures relevant teleworking issues, obstacles and concerns are addressed during transformation, and potential opportunities explored. COBRA brings together a complementary mix of pan-European implementation experience and conceptual understanding of both business restructuring and teleworking. Deliverables will be critiqued to ensure key people, technology, infrastructure, transportation, cross-border, social, environmental, SME, etc., issues are addressed
