Telstra COE Techhub

The proposed web application will serve as a comprehensive platform for engineering students and companies, combining secure document management, version control, and easy access to essential technical tools. This one-stop solution aims to streamline collaboration, ensure the security of project documents, and offer a curated selection of tools and resources that are vital for engineering projects. With features for secure document sharing, version control, and access to cloud platforms, integrated development environments (IDEs), and software licenses, the platform will provide a seamless experience for students to manage their project materials and for companies to ensure smooth project execution and resource utilization.

Key Features

1.     Document Management:

• Secure Document Sharing: Students and mentors can upload, share, and store project-related documents in a centralized platform. All documents are protected by encryption and user authentication to ensure security.
• Version Control: The platform will provide version control for all documents, allowing users to track changes, view document history, and revert to earlier versions if needed. This feature ensures the integrity of documents and reduces errors.
• Easy Access to Documents: Students and mentors can easily access all project materials from a single location, ensuring that relevant documents are never lost or overlooked. This feature will include categorization and tagging for efficient document retrieval.

2.     Technical Tool Access:

• Curated Toolset: The platform will offer a curated list of essential technical tools needed for engineering projects, including cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure), integrated development environments (IDEs), and software licenses for key engineering applications (e.g., AutoCAD, MATLAB, SolidWorks).
• Software Licenses: Provide students and companies with access to discounted or institutional licenses for the necessary tools and software they require for their projects.
• Integration with Tools: The platform will integrate with a wide range of industry-standard tools, allowing students and mentors to collaborate directly within the tools they are already familiar with. These integrations could include code repositories, simulation tools, design software, and project management platforms.

3.     Project Documentation & Workflow Management:

• Document Templates: The platform can offer pre-built document templates for project plans, reports, and other essential documents, saving time and standardizing deliverables.
• Workflow Integration: The document management system will integrate with task and milestone tracking, ensuring that all documents are tied to specific project phases and tasks. This will improve document organization and access at every stage of the project.
• Collaboration Features: Enable students and mentors to comment, edit, and annotate documents in real time, improving collaboration on technical papers, designs, and reports.
