In case the collaborative work is a paper or book for which the  
publisher is supplying (and requiring) an in-house LaTeX class, that  
may not be possible, depending on the ability of LyX to import LaTeX  
classes or packages.

I'm only guessing, as I'm not using LyX myself. But I was faced with  
the problem once when helping Windows colleagues to use Scientific  
Word for writing papers: after several unsuccessful attempts to  
import the required LaTeX class in Scientific Word, they finally gave  
up and migrated directly from MS Word to standard LaTeX.
