It was initiated in 2010 by the University of Koblenz-Landau and IBM Deutschland GmbH as a university-industry cooperation project to establish and operate a competence and performance center for educational institutions in the field of Enterprise Collaboration Systems (ECS). From 2019 to 2024, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hcltech.com\/geo-presence\/germany#locations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HCL Technologies Germany GmbH<\/a> took over the support of the UCT team as a cooperation partner in the further development of the project. In addition to financial support, the <a href=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/introduction\/\">UCT<\/a> benefited from HCL&#8217;s wealth of experience, with whose experts the <a href=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/introduction\/\">UCT<\/a> still maintains a lively exchange of knowledge today.<\/p>\n<p>One of UCT&#8217;s outstanding achievements is the operation of the powerful collaboration platform <a href=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/uniconnect\/\">UniConnect<\/a>, which is based on HCL Connections, hosted by UCT at the University of Koblenz on its own private cloud infrastructure in Koblenz and available to all university institutions worldwide for internal and cross-institutional collaborative work.<\/p>\n<p>The UCT also focuses on research into Enterprise Collaboration Systems (ECS) and the successful introduction of ECS, with the aim of providing companies and teaching institutions with scientifically sound recommendations for action. With the help of Enterprise Collaboration Analytics (the analysis of usage data generated in company-internal collaboration platforms), the general understanding of the technical operation and productive use of such a platform is also developed and continuously improved.<\/p>\n<p>As an additional offer, the UCT also designs teaching materials for the lecture \u2018Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW)\u2019 and uses these in its own courses and is constantly developing them further.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_tab_section av_tab_section av-5ker7a-4e8ee0d7fe0e51373909dbb2976f680f'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div id='tab-id-2-tab' class='tab' role='tab' aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\" data-fake-id='#tab-id-2' aria-controls='tab-id-2-content'  itemprop=\"headline\" ><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: left; margin-right: 25px;\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/UniLogoIcon-1.png\" alt=\"University of Koblenz\" \/> <\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 5px;\">University of Koblenz<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div id='tab-id-2-content' class='tab_content' role='tabpanel' aria-labelledby='tab-id-2-tab' aria-hidden=\"true\"><div class='tab_inner_content invers-color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><div align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uni-koblenz.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2823\" src=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"151\" height=\"47\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK.png 3963w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-300x93.png 300w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-1030x320.png 1030w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-768x239.png 768w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-1536x477.png 1536w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-2048x636.png 2048w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-1500x466.png 1500w, https:\/\/uct.de\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/UK_Logo_eng_CMYK-705x219.png 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 151px) 100vw, 151px\" \/><\/a> \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ceir.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2220\" src=\"https:\/\/uct.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/CEIR-red-left-transbg.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"245\" height=\"47\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>The <a href=\"\/en\/introduction\/\">UCT<\/a> was initiated by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-koblenz.de\/en\/computer-science\/iwvi\/schubert\/team\/petra-schubert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prof. Dr. Petra Schubert<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-koblenz.de\/en\/computer-science\/iwvi\/williams\/team\/susan-p-williams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prof. Dr. Susan P.
