Hi Mr. Tom:
Tandem literally means one behind the other - as in a tandem bicycle, or truck and trailer.
It can be used figuratively as meaning to work together - picture people pedaling a tandem bicycle.
In collaboration is much more give-and-take, discussing, helping each other, rather than just being in a "chain gang" with each person doing the same thing in unison.
