Unfortunately, that is not a solution due to the constraints of file sizes 
associated with the run time operations as well as specific execution workflows.

I need to make this a packaged distributable and the only blocker for it at the 
moment is not being able to successfully bundle R as a standalone binary.

Warm Regards,

    Wouldn't it be easier to set up a Shiny host system, and just give your 
    collaborators a URL to the Shiny app running there?
