The rapid growth in features, capabilities, and adoption of Spack has transformed it into a vital tool for managing software dependencies in scientific computing. However, one of the significant challenges faced by large organizations is the effective communication and information sharing across diverse teams. This talk will present a case study from Sandia National Laboratories, detailing the evolution and impact of strategies implemented to address these communication hurdles. We will explore the formation of a self-organized working group dedicated to fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange around Spack, as well as a recently funded initiative aimed at enhancing Spack collaboration and development efforts. By examining the successes and lessons learned from these organizational approaches, we aim to provide insights into best practices for engaging teams in the adoption of Spack, ultimately promoting a more cohesive and efficient development environment. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of how structured engagement strategies can facilitate the integration of Spack within large organizations and enhance collaborative software development efforts.
