N2 - This paper is based on case study work that examined the work practices of a knowledge-intensive firm: Pi-Corp. This firm provides hardware support for clients' mission critical systems. The complexity of the system environment and configurations involved require highly complex technical solutions and may require parts of several previous solutions to be re-used to form a new solution Coordination theory is used to examine the knowledge work tasks, resources, and interdependencies.
