Multi-disciplinary globally distributed design projects are more critical to implement and run than similarly collocated (localized) intradisciplinary projects. In this paper we present a computer-based methodology that provides guidelines and operative instructions on how to run distributed teams involving members from several disciplines. It is adjusted to the needs of product development according to different topics, thereby allowing easy and target-oriented access. It supplements the established “Cidad”-Product-Development portal.     «
