In reply to my understanding may be a request for a
stigmergic<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stigmergy>collaboration
platform via the presentation slides Suresh introduces (
thanks Suresh ! )

http://www.slideshare.net/sureshf/occupy-everywhere

I remember and wish to suggest the following existing development platform :

http://citizenlogistics.com/

and more specifically the groundcrew solution ( first page looks the same )

http://groundcrew.us/

http://groundcrew.us/pro  ( excerpt below )

example : http://groundcrew.us/demo-university

and they also seem to be hiring :
