In the current digital era, looking at the evolution of communication systems of the last years, the traditional tools and techniques for project communication inside and outside the company need to be continuously updated or sometimes even completely redesigned. Nowadays, for example, most of the communication among the project teams takes place via WhatsApp messages or SMS (with a low level of traceability or validity from the contractual point of view); to schedule a meeting, someone intervenes directly via your personal agenda through Outlook or something similar; the traditional approach that sometimes manages to block the communication among some stakeholders is anachronistic due to the difficulty of controlling this type of situation.
In the short term, this will also affect the overall project organisation. In your opinion, which are the possible scenarios for the future of project communication architecture and systems? Which are the related consequences in term of project roles and responsibility distribution?

Present as many examples as possible to explain your point of view in an essay of no more than 3 pages.
